This is why it is always a good idea to book each traveller on a seperate PNR.</font>
Not always such a good thing. Let's say you both want to upgrade. With most airlines, separate PNRs will mean the person with highest status will get upgraded first and the other person may never make it. If they don't and you try to downgrade to join them, you may well find your original seat allocation is also gone. Messy.
