Thank you so much everyone, Can I please clarify booking the return. I have booked PE online for the outbound. Are you saying to book the inbound, I don’t need to call at midnight and that I can ring the UK call centre when it suits me to get them to add the return seats to my companion voucher and that I will only need to find the difference in avios points required for both journeys?

I had spoke with BA yesterday and was told I would need to call at midnight to book the returns or pay the total avios price for returns booked on line then have that amount refunded? I don’t have enough points to do this.

I seem to be tying myself in knots with this! Thanks all.
