Note that being a European member you do miss out on some support. Such as the absence of phone numbers (in some countries), really crap published fares (usually cheaper to buy from UK, and purchase an add-on) and finally that they will not mail to you any mailings if you live in a country with which they have no bulk mailing deal (e.g. Denmark

). Fine can live without the mailings, but if you get to be an NZ*E then you have to try and get the Xmas gift out of them! (UK address usually does the trick, but amazed that nobody would bother just popping it in the post for an NZ*E, but that is the modern NZ).
