I now understand that I call in and get my friend (I'm currently PPRO about to turn EXP, he has no status) seated next to me on the DFW-TPA and reverse flights). Is there anything I can do to get him better seats on IAD-DFW and reverse. I payed for my ticket and I'm using my miles for my ticket.
No, if you're not on the same flight with him then your elite status won't do anything in terms of getting him a better seat.
