Seat selection on a Cathay codeshare

[tanahflyer]

Codeshares can be a right royal PITA when it comes to seat selection (even in J). In fact I think it’s become worse - maybe because all the airlines have locked down their system to only allow managing a booking with there metal.

One last thing, and I’ve mentioned above - if you’re QF WP (OWE), double check your FF# is entered correctly (including any leading zeros).

Did the CSOs acknowledge that your OWE status was linked to the booking?

Yup - I even mentioned that OWE should be entitled to seat selection in the conversation.
Was escalated to a supervisor and asked for a manual seat assignment but no dice.
