AA flight booked with Avios: Not able to select seats on AA.com
I've made several Avios bookings for flights on AA over the past month and I have not been able to select any seats myself on aa.com. I've also purchased revenue tickets on aa.com in this same time frame and not a problem selecting any seat including MCE when i add my BA account #.
At first I thought it was a glitch but now I am starting to think that there may be something else going on here when you book with Avios in economy. A ticket I purchased in first allowed me to choose any seat I wanted.
Has anyone else seen this recently?
