So even if they disallow the bonus 30K after the $5K spend because of the first-time verbage, you may have a case for these 35K.
I'm hoping your first post is the more appropriate one. I've already gotten my second MM card, and am most of the way thru the extra MS to qualify for another (O/W) LH FC TATL award. DW hasn't gotten her second one yet, and we waiting for a few more months to pass since her last US Air app before she applies for the MM card.

Having enough miles for one award isn't going to do me much good, as we aren't about to buy a LH FC ticket, and there's no way I'm getting away with sending her home on AA while I go LH.
