Whoever is requesting the split must be very specific about who stays on the original PNR and who gets the new one(s). Even with that I have had phone CSR's screw it up a few times.

I've just abot gotten to the point where I book each ticket separately which is a lot more work then a single booking and splitting after our seats are selected and EC seats obtained.
