Redeeming points from multiple nominees in one booking

[crmdgnly]

Hi, three of us traveling, all with Kris flyer accounts and all set up as nominees for one another.
One logged in and attempted to book a flight, with a view to using some of each of our points as part payment.
The booking page only showed the points balance of the person logged in. DO we really need to book individually and risk not sitting together or at worst no availability on the flight if all the seats should sell before all of us have booked? I would have thought this was a common requirement, especially among families.
To be clear, I am not trying to transfer points, just book for three travelers and use those three travelers existing points as part payment for their own seats.

Grateful for any clarification that can be given

Many thanks

You can only use the points in the account you are logged into......so if that account doesn't have the required points you will need to book each individually, standard in most frequent flyer programs
