SAS EuroBonus - No More Awards in 1st Class on *Alliance

I just had a 35 minutes frustrating call with EuroBonus with the news that since the 1st of April EuroBonus members are not longer allowed to book free travel in First Class on *Alliance.
First they tell me to wait with my award travel (knowing what I wanted) for the new Bonus table and than they tell me that sorry no more 1st class Bonus travel.
Finnair here I come with my regular trips between ARN and HEL and SAS forgot of comming back to you with ARN to SFO.

SMS - I agree SAS Eurobonus elite level (Gold) 'stinks'. Finnair elite (Platinum) combined with OW offers much better benefits. I only use SAS if there really is no other resonable alternative.

Were 1st class awards 'hidden' awards? I've never seen them in any EuroBonus Gold benefits publication.

Hi Austman,

while you could not see them online in the points charts I used them (speak international travel in First Class) and when I tried to book it in March I was told to wait until the new points table is out.
