Is it possible to use my flying club reward voucher to upgrade another person’s flight, or to book a flight for another couple (e.g. my partner and his mom) without me travelling on the booking?
If it is relevant, I am only a red member with flying club.
Answers on the forum suggest that this is possible, but not sure if it is still the case after the changes in late 2024.
Also wanted to see if it makes a difference if the people I wish to book for are on the same household account as me.
No. If you had Silver or Gold status you could transfer it to another person, but you don’t.
Sadly not unless you are gold, which is a shame.
Is this a post October 2024 change? I saw some people with success booking for others in the past.
How does it work with household accounts though?
If the voucher owner is not the head of the household, the voucher owner would probably need to transfer the voucher to the head who owns the points to make a redemption.

Interesting point, is the person already part of your household? If they are you could always give it a shot and see what they say. Half of what you get out of Virgin really depends on the agent.
Early this week i spotted some exit row seats available but not clickable, the first agent was categorically a flat out no, only the gate agents can assign them. The second agent booked them straight away, so you could get lucky.
I used my wife’s voucher 18 months ago, have the rules changed since then, think I was red at the time
