New policies with southwest

[Dznypal]

With the new policies at southwest does anyone know if you buy the basic do you still get the option to buy seats at booking. Or do you have to wait till check in
Any other advice
On our flight down we’re still under the old system but coming home it’s the new
Not sure how this will all play out

From SW website, you can purchase extra leg room or preferred, if available. You can’t buy a standard seat. Do the math & make sure it’s not more than just booking choice which includes a standard set at booking.
