Hi @Jill – where are you going, some destinations are much more likely to be available when waiting for the inbound to become available?
But yes, you’re just making an avios booking without a 241, it’s the same process. If you do book separate legs your friend will retain 2 PNRs, but you’re not losing anything by making separate bookings online as soon as the long haul sectors are released, and then you’ll only need to call once to add the domestic connection.
However – if you haven’t made your 241 booking yet, you can use it to book for 3 of you on one booking – as long as your seats aren’t coming from the “extra availability” pot opened up by the new-style vouchers. The 3rd person would need to be in a HHA with you or on your friends and family list.
Hope this makes sense lol.
