    Call forwarding is a carrier option. My carrier has something called "No Answer/Busy Transfer". Calls are sent to my phone but, if I don't answer them, they get forwarded. You could check to see if your carrier has such a feature. You could then set DND on your phone so that only certain people on your phone can ring through.

     

    Best of luck.
