Thanks for the tips. Oh yah, and I'm excited to visit Denmark. Hopefully my wife's maiden name doesn't screw me on her points but even if so the kids will be nice.
With A3 its friends AND family so no name worries

does not need to have same address etc

plus yoo get 1000 welcome miles (or atleast you used to) that are elite qualifying as well so only 23k
