Thanks in advance! :-)
Answer is NO, benefits only apply to passengers on same PNR, if you're in different classes, it's impossible to be on same PNR, so benefits don't apply to companion.

You can still get them on the upgrade list. You just have to call in to do it.

Thanks all for your input. The FA moved traveling companion from Econ to MCE, even though I was in first class on a different PNR.

You lucked out. Benefits often are not shared on separate PNRS

Did you mean the Gate Agent as opposed to the Flight Attendant?
