Barclaycard upgrade voucher – availability & how to use?

[Cranzle]

I’m trying to make a booking using the above for the first time.

I’ve noticed there is less availability than when using the new style Amex 241 companion voucher. Is this correct?

Also, is there a way of using two vouchers at the same time to make a booking online?

The Amex 241 can offer extra Club World availability not available on any other type of Avios booking, including a Barclays voucher.

There are mixed (ie contradictory) reports about the ability to use two Barclays vouchers online, but it’s allowed and can be done on the telephone. You can’t mix an Amex 241 and Barclays voucher in the same booking.

Note also that when using the Barclays voucher, you will only be offered the maximum Avios/minimum cash option whereas on the 241 you can choose the mix.
