I might be wrong but I do not recall seeing either thing above reported otherwise as coming from "offical" sources? The 1.8 is interestingly the exact figure I predicted along with a couple of others a month or so back.

The 100% bonus - do folks think that means STATUS bonus or simply point bonus?

KLM are IMO pretty foolish to leave the new program so much in the air for so long after announcing it on their website.
