Linking two QF bookings without calling

[albatross710]

Is there a convenient online way to link to identical bookings without calling the QF call centre?

Mrs Albatross & I had a combined booking which we cancelled and QF issued two flight credits. We've now booked new itineraries and I'd like to have Mrs A linked to my booking again for Gold benefits (which is preferential seat allocation.)

Any way to do it online?

Not that I've ever been able to work out.

needs a phone call

I think a phone call is worth a try but if you don't want to run the gauntlet, jump online at T-80h and sit yourselves together. It's then open slather.

You could get row 1 if in J or row 4 if in whY (or equivalent if not a B737.)

If you wait until checkin, it is likely to be too late IMO.

There is no way to combine the 2 bookings into one
What the airline calls "linking" really are just "notes" in the each booking brining attention to the other booking.

Best is to call your favourite off shore call centre and request seating.
