If I'm not mistaken the letter said that there has been a high increase in the number of DC members in Scandinavia. I guess the "free visits for spenders" is a way of rewarding those who actually use the card for its primary purpose (it is a credit card after all) and not just keep it to gain free entrance to the lounge in CPH and elsewhere. I have so far accumulated 6 free visits in 2012 which I think I will probably not use all of as I usually make sure I travel within the *A network and use my EBG to get lounge access. The DC is only a back-up. By the way, I think with a Eurocard one also has to pay to get into the Novia lounge in CPH? In any case I'm willing to pay even more for access to some DC lounges such as the one in DXB which has saved me many times on 6-8 hour nightly stopovers going to KBL. In conclusion: I somehow understand the new policy and I can live with it.
