Adding Points From Other People

I have booked my family tickets on BA for Xmas. I would like to add the points to my BA Avicos Account as they do not have accounts - Is this possible ?

open a household account and add them to it. Just make sure theyre all "living" at your address.

I thought that had changed now and they don't have to be at your address?

They must all live at your address to pool Avios earned.

However, you can now redeem for people who don't live at your address.

the point is that the other members of your household account have to have their EC account registered at your address. There has never been any kind of address verification required, so there was always the opportunity for a lot of flexibility

So the OP can simply create BAEC accounts for each of the pax using his own address, add those accounts to his household account, and get the miles.
