Has anyone had any luck with seats? I am on a UA ticket, X fare, no flights on UA metal. Starting on AC, then LH, then LX, after our LH flight was discontinued. On AC, we are on Rouge, which I think always charges for seats, and on both AC and LH, we were able to get free seat assignments. (They had fees for exit rows, etc.) Looking at the itinerary on LX it says fare X. It doesn't say light anywhere, and it doesn't make the bag fee part obvious, it just gives the option for Additional baggage. No where does it say whether that 'additional' baggage is the 1st bag or the 2nd. Long story short, I'm not concerned about the bag, as we'll probably carry on anyway, and if we want to check, there's nothing you can do before you get to the airport (I would just show them my UA itinerary that shows 1 free bag). But I do not want to wait until the airport to get a seat assignment for a transatlantic flight.

Any tips for speaking to LX?
