Default Get a third key?

I want to get a third spare key for my sister in case she needs to drive it. I want to know how much usually the spare key cost and how long does it take to order one from the dealership.

Also depending on what year civic if its a newer one that needs to be chipped your looking at spending a pretty penny

A Honda dealer can make you a new key (regular or valet) using your VIN# for a couple of bucks. I do believe that 2001 and newer Civics have an immobilizer system (anti-theft protection like the Accord and '97-01 Preludes) requiring a 'chipped' key. These keys run ~$35 at the dealer.
