That's great news! Any europeans noticed that bonus trips NYC-ARN/CPH/OSL is 50k/70k when ARN/CPH/OSL-NYC is 70k/110k? Makes it a lot more affordable to deduct miles for the reverse routing-- which is also bookable.

If you intend to travel twice and mix award and paid tickets, 70k + 3000 SEK for coach/business.

An example (irrespective of min/max stays):

Feb 28 ARN-NYC Coach (booking1, paid)
Mar 05 NYC-ARN Business (booking2, award)

Apr 15 ARN-NYC Business (booking2, award)
Apr 20 NYC-ARN Coach (booking1, paid)

I hope you are not all confused by now! Anyone see any problems with this?

Not only that, NYC/CHI/WAS/SEA - Europe is 50k/70k, with stopovers permitted in Scandinavia in both directions! So, you should be able to get a free trip in-between Mar06-Apr15 to any SAS destination in Europe for no additional points.
