Hi, I suspect the answer to this is no, but wanted to check. I am looking to book specific flights 355 days out and was going to phone the call centre at midnight to grab them. Only problem is I am looking to use a companion ticket which is issued to my wife…I assume the call centre won’t speak to me given its issued in her name? If so will need to try my chances online at midnight! Any advice appreciated, thanks
Add yourself as a third party nominee on your wife’s account.

Your wife can designate you or anyone as a third party nominee via her BAEC online. CSA will ask for the password when ringing to book/redeem.
Online is of course another option.
As above and make sure you start the conversation with “I am an authorised person on my wife’s account” to avoid any misunderstandings that might slow the booking down!
On a general note…companion voucher holder still needs to be on the flight (outbound flight at least) even if a nominee is added.
