I have 2x RU's to use so I applied for an upgrade and my partner will stay with the kids. (don't worry she'll get her turn on the way back

)
If the RU clears I assume AIRNZ will just take the single seat away so my wife and 2xkids will be in the skycouch? or have I potentially voided the skycouch by applying the RU as the receipt shows the skycouch against my name.
Cheers
I would make sure that you are sitting in the "single" seat - just in case there is not an issue. easy to make a sky couch if they are sitting in a sky couch row.
FYI - one sky couch.. depending on the age of the children is not going to be very comfortable! I would give up the upgrade and buy 2 x sky couch rows! at least the kids can sleep.
based on current J loadings which are full, I doubt in school holidays your upgrade will clear!
