Flying to Cancun on BA2203 with family (including mother) which I believe is a 777 old style layout of CW. Mother has a CPAP machine which i know she is fine to bring on board, but i'm finding it difficult determining if there will be a plug socket to plug it into in her seat.

Whats the best way of figuring this out as we'll need to buy a battery pack if there isn't power available in the seat?

Say we have 300k points, a companion voucher and want to fly somewhere long-haul were the availability for business redemptions isn't hideous.

Never ideal having to pay for a business class seat for a toddler, but what would you say is the best way of booking as a family of 3?

Would the optimal be trying to get a second companion voucher and enough points to book a 3rd business seat for half the points?

e.g 250k points for 2 people business with companion voucher, then 125k points for the 3rd person business with a 2nd companion voucher

Or are there better ways of doing it. Trying to think if it is worth wasting a companion voucher on what would be a near 3 year old. But then also weighing up the options on when we'd even be able to use a companion voucher without a child in the future due to the validity restraints on them.

Thinking of an African/Indian city as the destination
