3 Passengers – Barclays Cabin Upgrade and Amex Companion Voucher (not premium)

So first if all, the free Amex 241 will only get you economy avios seats.

The Barclays upgrade voucher will get you a return journey in PE or CW (business) both ways, or 2 of you, one way (as long as avios seats are available in the cabin you want to fly in).

So you’ll need to either:

a) get the BAPP and earn the 241 voucher on that (will require £15k spend from November)
b) earn a lot more avios and pay full award price for the 3rd seat.

OR – use avios for you and your daughter and pay cash for the your partner (if the avios and vouchers are yours).

However, 133k avios is not a lot, so unless you’re prepared to pay a much higher cash element, you will need considerably more to get 3 of you in long haul business class. Have you read the articles and threads on here about getting the most of out all this, and also looked at avios pricing?
