I phoned BA to add my Silver Sparrow number to an Avios booking, so that I can get free seat selection 7 days in advance. Although the agent said she’d added it, the booking still shows as having my BA number. Is that normal?
Did you ever find this out?
We just completed our Avios 2-4-1 booking LGW/CUN/LGW and I asked on X for them to add my RJ number. In the following weeks when I checked it would show RJ or BAEC depending on absolutely nothing. I was sure the t-7 seat selection wouldn’t appear but it did. The return flight had several downgraded and some offloaded in CW so I felt lucky to get our pick of seats and stay in them.
