Surprisingly, they replied within 30 minutes. Their response basically confirms what we all suspected: Flying Blue has just received official notice that SAS has replaced its Premium (Plus) product with Business Class on European routes. However, they also said they haven’t yet received the updated XP and Miles mapping for domestic and medium-distance flights.
So, they now acknowledge that SAS Plus is gone and Business is the new product, but their internal XP tables still need to be updated. My case will remain open until that’s done, and they’ll follow up once the system is aligned.
At least there’s now official confirmation from Flying Blue that this is a known issue. I’m confident it’ll be corrected retroactively once the backend update goes live.
The PSL manually credited the missing 40 XP for my SAS Business flights (two separate trips on Oct 7 and 9).
They confirmed the SAS/XP issue is still under investigation. But at least manual corrections are now being processed while that’s ongoing.
