Well, it may not be part of the big 3 -- and I am not a member of their rewards program -- but there are the Radisson/SAS hotels throughout the retgion and the rewards program is Goldpoints, I believe.
Also, is it definite that Hilton plans to drop Scandic? I did not hear of this -- do you have a link?
