Hi, hope this will make sense.

I have an RFS with a 241, did the 1:00 am to get the outbound and tried again a week later but all gone. There are 3 of us wife, 10yo and myself, I can get 2 reward seats coming back meaning we miss a day of the holiday, but no real biggie, but not 3.

Question is, can I book 2 seats with avios for the return and add to the outbound 241 booking and then pay for one seat, or do I have to find 3 reward seats for the return in order to add to the booking. I thought I would ask here as people here will probably know better than BAEC.
