Since I may lose the E+ seat on the UA flight as this trip won't take place until May 2012, I naturally think that instead of using my own status, I would somehow be counted as his companion. Can this be done since we have separate PNRs? Who should I call? CO or UA?
You have claim to the seats you booked. You shouldn't be yanked out of your chosen seat because (I'm assuming) you lose status between booking and flight.
