My parents have invited my kids (11 and 9) to go on a domestic summer trip with them. I’d like to purchase the kids’ tickets with my points. My parents will be traveling with them, but am I able to purchase my kids’ tickets independently or do they have to be on the same iteniary?

You can purchase the kids' tickets independently from the grandparents' tickets, but because of their age you will be asked for the confirmation number and name of an adult traveling with them when you complete the purchase. You should provide the information from the grandparents' reservation.
