Seat Selection Issue
Hi, does anyone know why 3 flights I have just made reservations on for travel in May won't let me move seats at all? I am Oneworld Sapphire through being BA Silver and have been put in MCE seats I think but every other seat in the plane is blanked out. I would rather sit in different MCE seats if possible, anyone any ideas?

Yea, unfortunately it's a known glitch with BA bookings and BA status seat assignments...

I'm having a similar issue today. I'm BA Gold/OWE and I cannot select "Preferred Seats" however it's letting me select MCE for free. In the past I could select either Preferred or MCE. Since there are no more MCE aisle seats on one of my flights, I went for preferred with no luck. So, MCE window selected for now until the glitch is fixed.
