In addition to the vouchers being enhanced away (before: one set of vouchers expiring at the end of the current tracking period when first reach Lumo and then an additional new set of vouchers at the end of the tracking period), together with the BMW (have they now been sold?), the lounge access has been enhanced as well.

Before: you could access lounges at HEL regardless of airline. Now: must be AY code on the ticket.

Before: could access any one world lounge that allowed entry to finnair and emeralds. Now: Apparently it is only the single lounge printed on the boarding pass. Taking what it says literally, no more lounge hopping at JFK, LHR, HKG etc. Finnair must pay access to the lounge contractors so it makes sense that they would enhance this away so that they can only pay for a single lounge entry.




Was it not two Gold gifts before? And then two more when the new tracking period starts? When they enhanced the vouchers away, they must have retained the old rules for getting another set of perks just for the Gold gift, and taken it to be just a single Gold gift (instead of two) per tracking period. Although, the English is ambiguous and not clear. So you get one Gold gift valid for 12 months when you first reach Lumo, like the vouchers' validity. It's not clear whether you get another Gold gift when the tracking period during which you reached Lumo for the first time ends (as was the case previously for the vouchers and Gold gifts), or another Gold gift only when you reach Lumo again during another future tracking period? The text interpreted as it stands would imply the latter, but I believe the spirit is for the former.
I dont have the old text versions to verify if anything has vhanged here but I dont see any changes however here????
