teacherman Posted January 27 #1 Share Posted January 27 We just booked one way air from DTW to Lisbon for our November TransAtlantic. The flights are on AA. We received an American Airlines "locator number". When would we be able to find the reservation on the AA website and select our seats? We don't have to pay for them until the final cruise payment in August. Any information is welcome. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PMT51 Posted January 27 #2 Share Posted January 27 In my experience we could not do anything with Air Canada until after final payement and Flights by Celebrity actually paid the airline. We were able to choose our seats in December for our February cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were able to select seats on both airlines. I am not sure if American is like that. You should at least be able to view your AA flight online through your AA account. If not, check to be sure that your reservation has your AA freq flyer account listed against it. I have noticed in the past that our freq flyer account was not listed against our air booking even though I filled entered the information during the booking process.

mahasamatman Posted January 27 #4 Share Posted January 27 Just go to AA.com and see if you can bring up the reservation. Some airlines allow you to see the booking as soon as it is made, and some require payment first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogini06 Posted January 27 #5 Share Posted January 27 I called Flights by celebrity to select seats. Otherwise tickets are paid for about 30 days ahead of travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenb Posted January 27 #6 Share Posted January 27 (edited) We had to call FBC to get our seats assigned for our AA flights. Also United allowed us to get seats online. My AA tickets weren't paid for even after I made final payment. I called FBC and magically my tickets were paid for.

jelayne Posted January 28 #7 Share Posted January 28 With AA you can have FBC reserve your seats but if you want preferred seats that can’t be done until the flight is ticketed. Once final payment is made I call FBC and request they ticket the flight, at that point I can select our seats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
