Could you attempt to create another Club Carlson account and if your name is John Smith, you create the new one with "John W. Smith" and a different email, and then use your existing EB account for the match.
How vigilant is CC on this.

Not very. Carlson used to even explicitly allow for persons to have more than one account at a time. And I don't recall hearing them forcing all those accounts to merge.

Due to the congested check-in area at CPH (at least on the SAS terminal side), the airport may provide an elevated bypass path that allows Metro-using flyers to choose to go directly to the security screening line without always having to go to the street-level (or sub-street-levels) of the terminal when flying out of CPH.
It will be interesting to see how long it takes for them to do this.

I think the plan was talking about an extra bridge. I vaguely remember a concept visualization, too. I think having this is long desired, would shorten my flights by one minute . I am quite afraid that the mess while this is constructed will be considerable. Terminal 3 becoming essentially unusable, etc.

Another small improvement (hopefully) will come earlier in the T3 Zoo. The exit from baggage claim will be moved eastwards, so it no longer will be in the middle in an attempt to better separate incoming and welcoming traffic.

Is that new baggage claim exit going to be east of the landslide Starbucks?

As esthetically well done as the design of T3 was when it opened,it hardly took growing numbers of passengers in to consideration. The idea of the departing and arriving passengers crossing paths in a fairly narrow space barely coped with the number of passengers in 1998 let alone now.

In the early 2000s, I didn't consider it that congested except at the "welcome" area alley just after customs. As it got worse, I learned to cut to the right (toward what is now the Starbucks) and zip that way and then plough ahead to get to the Hilton/Metro or trains toward central Copenhagen or Sweden. But in the past several years it's become so congested that I sometimes feel like the airport wants passengers to play bumper cars.
I always cut either left or right to avoid the crowds.

I must say this welcome alley thing at CPH so reminds me of what I see in parts of Asia for infrequently-returning expats.
Perhaps the airport -- in LDC Asian-style -- can get in the business of charging non-passengers (on a per person basis) to enter the terminal building? It wouldn't be a pretty solution, but it would clamp down on the crowding there.

With all these additional US destinations they should maybe consider there at least an option to buy access in Plus like LH has.
