I do not know what your card situation is. But you should know that for the personal Platinum card, having one, two or three AUs costs the same $175. So if your kids are old enough, there is no cost to add the other two. So you bring all three PAID Platinum cardholders to the lounge to help solve the lounge over-crowding situation.
