So just to confirm what you guys have saidI should book entirely with miles, confirm one F seat and ask them to waitlist the second F seat. They should charge me for the one ticket now and the other will be charged when its confirmed?

If the waitlist doesn't clear then I will just have to make the other half sit in the back
i would never try to make mrs. saad sit in the back....i don't think i would remain married after the flight is over....

if you are using upgrade vouchers or miles to upgrade then i think you may have a better chance at getting the 2nd first ticket....that is just my gut feel....

go ahead & book the ticket that is available....then call jp & speak with a manager....let them know you want to be put on a wait list for the second ticket....if the flight is not full then you should get it....
