Not really. Having everyone on the same reservation means everyone flies on the same flight in the same cabin of service. if you change one person's flight itinerary, they would have to be on their own reservation.[/QUOTE]

This is an OLCI upgrade here, not calling the week before to change things around. UA, DL, AS do OLCI checking upgrades independently for each passenger even when the passengers are on the same PNR. This is the first time I have ever seen anything like this, have you seen it on a different airline? What does Virgin do if there is only 1 F seat available, not make it an option on checkin if there is more than one passenger on a reservation? I think that this is more of a kink in their website than anything, as it is different than how other airlines handle this thought it was worth mentioning.
