Im just wondering if (not that I am a systems expert) I already have one booking showing on my BAEC account, wouldn't it be a possibility that I flag up as a passenger on two different bookings for the same day?
I don't want to take any chances especially with the increased security measures that might be in place considering the recent events in EU that have been happening.
Security is not the issue and they really do not mind that you have multiple bookings. If you do this a lot they might come after you in the form of taking away tier points etc or other sanctions, but those are widely debated and no one knows for sure, and no one has confirmed reports of this happening lately. If you bought online you are fine. If you bought through a travel agent you are putting your agent at risk of getting billed for the full value of a flight priced without the last segment.
