I'm Gold on AA. I expect to book a flight later this week, possibly within 24 hours of departure, and of course I can get MCE for free. I might take a friend with me on a mileage award; my ticket will be paid. After booking her ticket, can I add her record to mine and get her MCE for free?
The best thing to do is to book both of you one way in cash and the other way on miles. That way you will both be on the same record for both legs.
I am almost certain an agent isn't going to be able to combine two separate records.
