Please bear with me as I am picking your brains but whichever you tell me is the case I would do. Mucci can and will be awarded and a TFTG posted (or not if that suits you all better). Thank you so much in advance.
Car hire has to be booked at the same time as the flights via the BA Holidays part of the website. If youve already booked the flights adding a car subsequently will not work.

Also the T&Cs were very recently changed such that the car hire or hotel must be for at least 5 nights with the flights at either end. You also are not supposed to book flights to one destination and car hire elsewhere.

Edit to add: November 2023 is still fine though. Offer currently runs to 31 Dec 2023 though its not clear if return travel has to be done by that date but I suspect it is travel completed by date
