where did you read that it's only 3 Euro extra? i wish you are right and if it is only 3 Euro extra per booking than super - but it doesn't seem to be and devalues EuroBonus points a huge amount that paying with points+cash can be worse than just paying cash for the cheapest fare - that is not a way to "reward" loyal customers

at least if EuroBonus makes other improvements, like 50% points, 50% taxes, and 50% fuel surcharge for a one-way ticket compared to a return ticket, etc than this would balance things a little - perhaps (at least for me as i rarely return the same way). at the moment if i want to take a one-way flight on points somewhere i now not only have to pay twice the points as before, twice the taxes as before, but now twice the fuel surcharge also
