Not sure about the US voucher but it should be the same depending on T&Cs.
Apologies for bumping a really old thread but I was just wanting to check if this was still the case.
I'm booking a trip for myself and a friend using miles and a companion voucher. My wife and myself have a household account. When trying to book on-line the only passengers I appear to be allowed to book for is my wife and myself. Is it still a case of having to phone BAEC when you have a household account and you are making a booking using a companion voucher for yourself and someone not on your household account?
Also just wanted to add a quick word about reward availability - been looking at various options for a long weekend at short notice with a friend as we have a companion voucher expiring soon and myself and my wife won't be able to make best use of it (F long-haul) due to domestic circumstances. Availability is superb as far as I'm concerned. Nice one BA.
