I would appreciate some advice on whether I have found a solution to make a booking for 4 people, 1 of whom is not a member of my HHA with 2 Amex 241 vouchers one in my name and one is Mrs flyoff. From what I have researched here and on the Amex and BA website I can't book a ticket for a person outside my HHA. I am also trying to avoid the person outside the HHA joining my HHA as they wish to have an independent account that they manage and control.

I have spoken to the Exec Club about dissolving my HHA but this is not good a solution as I would loose the Avios in my daughters account as she can't hold an account outside a HHA due to her age. Mrs flyoff and I have enough Avios to fund the tickets in each of our accounts so this isn't an issue once she leaves the HHA.

I am looking to remove Mrs flyoff from the HHA account to allow me:
1. Book myself and my daughter one set of tickets with my Amex 241
2. Mrs flyoff to book for herself and the other person with her Amex 241

I can't see any other issues here other than we can't reform the HHA for another 6 months. The Shell and Tesco 2000 bonus points I think should continue as the account numbers won't change.

Can anyone see any downside to this strategy?
