Why can't we pick COPA seats on UA site?

It's a pain-in-the-neck to have to go to the COPA site to pick seats when I buy the ticket through UA. When I make a reservation on Concur, I can see the COPA seat map and pick seats, so UA should be able to do this with their close partner.

I don't think they do this with any partner.

Agree, very nice and accommodating fellow.

When I took a shower at ORD I was surprised the woman attendant didn't also ask me to clean it after I used it. Whatever, after coming in from NRT I just wanted hot water all over me.

I usually find the towel rack is very effective at burning me however. No matter how many times the attendant tells me to be careful of it, somehow it always gets me.

Interesting. in BF on a LHR-IAH 787 last week I noted that the cloth napkins had a buttonhole sewn, but very poorly and with only a very small cut of perhaps 2-3mm for the button. I suppose it's just for decoration that's it and that's all

It's impossible to predict the "time-out" period on The Map on IPTE premium class screens. Some never time-out, some do regularly, and some do it randomly. If I knew, I could be ready to touch the screen or push the remote button to wake up the screen.

On COdbaUA.com, I don't like the word order in the link entitled "Change/View Reservation," because one must first view a reservation before changing it.

Many of us take issue with the exact opposite

Seems like it's been that way since July. When I travel with my gf we swap ramekins after I've eaten all the almonds out of mine.

Cashews are disgusting. Almonds are nectar of the gods.
