They are no going to let you use miles with the free companion cert. but that being said this is a good deal if you do fly on BA where myself I don't and I've already spent my 100,000 miles on a RT business class ticket to Bali on Cathay.

This is the good deal (if you can spend 30K in a year) because you can use miles for biz class and take someone along for free (plus taxes).
