Are Cash and RFS Tickets Possible on Same Booking (PNR)?
Standard apologies that I did search the forum (honest guv) but couldn't see anything relevant.
I want to book a return trip LON - Barcelona for 2 people. 1 ticket will be a RFS using Avios, the other a plain cash booking. Is this possible on the same PNR? This is to use my Silver benefits, the other passenger has no status.
Thanks.

Cash and Avios bookings cannot be mixed in this way.
Which specific benefits were you thinking of? Lounge access does not require the same booking, neither does fast track. In practice, neither does check-in either.
Luggage benefits and seat selection would not transfer across unfortunately.

An excuse to get Gold? 
(Gold members may make seating requests for passengers on the same flight but on separate bookings, as long as the other booking is in the same cabin. Personally I've been finding this a surprisingly useful benefit...)

That’s a good benefit. Unfortunately Gold isn’t realistic given my travel patterns. Unless the QR fare intern is offered another shift 😁.
