VA Companion reward voucher.
I'm so sorry for sounding thick but it this possible...
I have a VA Companion Reward Voucher on my FC account. Can I book one UC Z fare paid with cash and then use my companion reward voucher for the second seat and pay just the taxes on the second seat? I am a red FC member so would i need to pay 57.5k miles for the companion seat plus the taxes? I have spoken to a VA agent who tell me this is not possible and that I have to pay for the first seat with miles and not cash if I want to use the voucher and would indeed have to pay the 57.5k miles plus taxes for the second seat. It's just that I found this on the Points Guy website: What’s even better is that you can apply your Companion or Upgrade Vouchers on a cash fare, rather than just redemption fare. This means if you’ve earned a Companion or Upgrade Voucher but don’t have enough Flying Club miles for the first passenger to make a redemption, the first passenger can just book a cash fare. The first passenger can then apply the Companion Voucher for their companion or the Upgrade Voucher for themselves. Me confused! Thanks. Ali. Edited at 09:19 PM. |

This page appears to agree - to find it go to the page then click on companion seats and it's at the bottom of the table
virginatlantic/gb/en...th-points.html Please note: Taxes, fees and carrier imposed surcharges apply to all reward flights. A Premium purchased ticket will get you a 50% discount off a Premium Reward Flight. An Upper Class purchased ticket, will get you 50% discount an Upper Class Reward Flight. |

Got through to the right agent, third time lucky!
I booked one full cash fare, one companion fare (57.5k miles plus taxes) and one M&M seat... So that’s us all booked for next year, something to look forward to, all 3 can be rescheduled (twice I think) should the need arise providing we travel by the end of Dec 2022. Really appreciate your help Ali x |

Sorted, as soon as I find out if Xmas is going ahead I'm going to book for next year.
