It always used to work...

As a WP, if I linked my booking to a passenger travelling on the same flight, I could then request seat allocation of that passenger to be next to me. Anywhere in the WP free seat allocation area, regardless of the other passenger's status. At no charge.

Now it's about 50/50 success. Qantas sometimes want to charge the other pax.

I realise it's not a published benefit but it's a bit odd not to allow it. In my latest example, we have a 100% identical itinerary - it's just that it was separately booked. If booked on the one itinerary it would have been allowed.

Others experiences?
