Efter at SAS kom med en mindre bombe for mange EuroBonus medlemmer, så har der været snakket, debatteret og gættet meget på hvad det vil komme til at betyde at Air France – KLM bliver medejere af SAS og at SAS vil skifte fra Star Alliance og til SkyTeam. Derfor kom SAS med en længere Q&A som skulle svare på nogle af spørgsmålene.

Vi har valgt at bringe den i sin helhed for at give den nemmeste mulighed for at få et overblik og uden at vi har fortolket noget af det som SAS har skrevet. Den er også “gemt” lidt væk på SAS hjemmesiden, så her kan den nemmere findes.

Især svar omkring, hvad der sker med point og Life TIme Gold status har været meget oppe at vende. SAS forsøger at give et svar herunder.

Vores vurdering er at dette vil være godt for status quo de næste 1-2 år. Men vi er ret overbeviste om at det ikke holder i længden. Vi har en klar overbevisning om at EuroBonus over tid vil blive en del af Flying Blue programmet. Enten opslugt eller som Finnair Plus, som skifter til Avios setup.
