I was told by the AC agent, that for eupgrade purposes, I could only upgrade her as a travelling companion if and only if she was on the same pnr (ie same ticket) as me! Of note, I had cross-referenced her file, to mine.

Is that what he is saying is true!

He told me that I could only upgrade her as a nominee!
