Mosaic Using Points for EMS For Companions
I have a stupid question so apologies if this has been asked.
I'm Mosaic and traveling with both my family and extended family. I know I can use points to redeem for Even More Space for my direct family on my own reservation (as we are on the same PNR), but can I do the same for those family members on the same flight but on different PNR's?
I'm willing to redeem with my own points just unsure if that is within the spirit of the benefits or not.
Thoughts?

But that assumes you want to pay for EMS.

Thanks. I'm on the shorter side (5' 7"), and B6's standard pitch is pretty decent, so while the extra legroom is appreciated, it's not a huge priority for me. OTOH, I have a few upcoming flights where all that are left are middle seats in the tail section, so from that perspective, getting a good deal on a nice window seat at the front of the plane, plus extra legroom, for a discounted rate sounds like a win!

, and do this all the time. More often than not, the middle seat will also be empty on the A320/A321 unless you have a route heavy on non-revs or are seated with 2 people traveling together.

The last time I got this was August, and I have had several points purchased EMS flights since then. It was a very nice benefit, but it seems to be gone.
