I don't know if the account transfer still exists, transfer without making a sharing account I can't find a reference to it on the website. It used to be prohibitively expensive though.
Thanks - I hadn't even considered that transfer of points might not be possible any longer (or the cost ...). Looking at the website it does seem that as least as a Gold member points transfer is still possible (from the [My Eurobonus] // [Manage My Eurobonus] // [Buy/Transfer points] menu options), though it is well hidden (and you have to follow a link that only says "Buy" (not "Buy/Transfer")).
I guess that this (i.e. transfer to a Diamond account) should work, given that I can't imagine SAS IT being sufficiently smart to keep track of the expiry date of a part of the points in the account - but with the added cost (85 Euro for 17000 points) I think I'll just go ahead and use the points for the flight later this year (maybe I'll transfer a token 5000 points though for 5 Euro to see what happens ...).
