Upgrading with Avios for part of booking
I've tried searching to find any information about this.
If I have a booking for 4 people with a flight in premium economy and there is availability for 2 CW seats am I able to just upgrade 2 people on the booking with avios or do I have to wait until there are 4 seats available.
Thanks for your help

You'd need to split the booking, so that the two people to be upgraded are on one booking, and the other two are on a separate booking.
But this is a very simple and straightforward process, after which the upgrading should then be possible without further difficulty. I think it ought to be capable of being done all in the same call - you will need to call to do the split, so you might as well do the whole thing in one go.

What happends if I am BA Gold and book a trip for myself and some more people to for example SIN from LHR in the same booking. The other people are blue. If I later split the PNR and UUA myself only, will the other people loose the seat assignments and group 1 boarding privilegies?

If I live in Norway, do I still get the 24h cooling period on BA holidays if booked on phone?
