Just made a 2-4-1 redemption and looked up the booking on checkmytrip. The seats etc seem to be allocated properly (in the pointy end of the 747 ), and the ticket numbers are already there.

But I was a touch confused by the fact that my BAEC number appears under the companion's name. And no BAEC number appears under my name.

Is this usual?

Also, given that this will be an electronic ticket, does one still get a postal itinerary confirmation?
