elites picking seats for non elites, is it no longer??

since i can remember, i have been able to choose elite section seating for my nonelite family members by logging on to my account, accessing their record and simply changing their seats. i know its not fair, but it has always been available.

tonight i booked a friend through my account on a msy-las flight and was unable to choose elite seating for her.

i logged out, logged back in and then tried again and nothing.

has CO smarted up to us? although i agree it wasnt that fair, i cant believe there were that many of us who actually did it.

it was somewhat of a perk to tell friends that when flying CO i could get them the "good" coach seats. it always excited them and gave them a slight feeling of importance (little did they know).

any info on this???
