For international flights, advance seat selection is possible for all fare classes (at least used to be until recently). I don't know what the position is with 'regional' flights.
For domestic, only 'expensive' fares in Y can book seats in advance. I see to my horror that there now even are fare buckets that earn NO Voyager miles at all! (and what's worse, I am in one
)

)You are correct about being able to select seats on international flights - we could select seats on SA airline to and from Botswana, even in pleb!

Great information here, this is why I love FlyerTalk.
Booked on AC award on SAA. Got my SAA booking reference but SAA's website was unable to locate it, despite showing up on checkmytrip.
Egyptair.com saved the day! Easy to reserve seats there ^

Hmm so I had to make a change to my AC award on SAA. Booking ref did not change, flights are up to date, but EgyptAir's website is no longer giving me the option to change seats.... is this feature no longer available?
Update: Tried to get my seats reserved by direct messaging SAA's twitter account (have had success doing this with other airlines). While they didn't do it via Twitter, they arranged a phone call with an agent. An agent called me from SA, poor connection, we struggled a bit with communication but eventually she was able to make my requested seat reservations.
Wish this would just work on flysaa.com.
