Don't split

After all the recent changes I'm not sure what the current policies are, so I thought I'd consult with the collective wisdom of FTers. What would you do in my situation? Split or not?
If you split, your wife will never get her upgrade.

If you don't split, the odds are still not great -- probably what will happen is that you won't see 2 NC spots open up at once, so neither of you will get your upgrade until the day-of. On the day-of, they effectively get split, so you could get yours but she again probably won't.
