here is another challenge with the nominees/companions....
I am SE, I'm allowed 4 nominees... so lets say I list Bob, Frank, Susan, and Kathy. Now all of my 4 nominees are full.... I'm travelling with MrsQQ and we're in the same file... no problem so far.... we're booked LHR-YYZ-YVR, upgrade confirmed LHR-YYZ for both, waitlisted YYZ-YVR for both.... 1 R seat opens up YYZ-YVR... the only way to get it is to split the file... so we split it... now MrsQQ is no longer a travelling companion, she loses her LHR-YYZ upgrade since I don't have any more nominee space.... WARNING... don't use up all of you nominees
