Making the most of SAS EB Amex 50% and Mastercard Premium discounts
I have learned enough from all of the helpful information on this forum to be in the position to make use of both the SAS EB Amex and Mastercard Premium (Book in Business, Pay for Go) discounts, but I have yet to actually book any award travel using these. Before I do so, I would appreciate some advice.
If I understand things correctly, the Mastercard discount/upgrade is applicable for all award travel on SAS. Does that apply to codeshare destinations as well? Does it apply for points bookings only, or for points + money bookings as well?
My wife and I live in Stockholm and we would like to book award travel in business class to Auckland in October/November. If I understand correctly, using the Amex 2 for 1 discount this should cost 180 000 points. That seems to be the best possible discount to use for this particular trip, but I want to be sure.
