Thanks a lot guys for your input.

As far as I can see, there's no availability in the week of August the 24th (yet?) for business nor first. I've read in other forums, though, that Lufthansa releases those awards quite late (e.g. 2 weeks from departure).

I'm excited to hear that Head of Eurobonus at SAS says that *A is in negotiations about the future of those high taxes on awards. Let's see how that ends up.
