Also, with it being inter-Olympics week in Vancouver, I'm not sure how easy it would be to get a room, especially for under $100. I could see how younger in-laws (other than sister/brother) would be a naming challenge. I think this is a 5-hour layover, so it’s just on the should-I-get-a-room borderline.

I just use first names since they're not much younger than me - and I think they look older than me :) The days when I would sleep on an airport bench disappeared decades ago. I can get a comfortable bed near YVR for $93 - for any more than about a 4-hour stop, that's no contest! What term to use for the in-laws is always a challenge, it seems.
