seat selection - United domestic Y award booked with miles and more
I was looking at booking a United operated award (domestic US) in coach using my LH miles and more account; I found an option that LH lists as "economy flex" for 15K miles. However, I noticed that the award indicates: Free Seat Reservation: Not offered. Will I be able to take the PNR to the united site and select seats for this itinerary? I thought that regular economy award reservations with United do include seat assignments, though I do not have experience booking awards with miles and more. Thanks in advance.

in case anyone else ever has this question, I was able to use the LH PNR to look up the reservation instantly on the United site, and I could add seats there (free seats in the back, or paid seats in the preferred and economy plus sections).
Additionally, I was not able to add my known traveler number to the LH award booking (at least not anywhere that I saw), but I was eastly able to add this on the United site.

The KTN is the ID the DHS uses to manage membership in Trusted Traveler Programs such as Global Entry. IIRC it is also used if you are a member of TSApre (only).
