The availability was quite good and I was able to book 4 tickets with the date I wanted.
First time taking BR, looking forward to it :-)

So am I safe in terms of transfer all the miles over(I understand there's still possibility in terms of tickets got taken in between the transfer)? Thank you for all the information!
How can I book for my wife and 5 year old son for a flight I won't be taking?

She has an EVA FF account. He does not. Even if I could make one from him, they wouldn't let a 5 year old book a ticket, would they?
