Hi,

I have actually started to move a lot of the business to other Star A carriers when it is on the cheeper tickets. So instead of 25% of the EB point (plus % for the EBG status) Then I get full points on my accounts via the Star A member ship. For US or Asia I use normally Thai og Lufthansa when the tickets are to expensive with SAS. I still get my EB ponits, but SAS are loosing my business.

I do also consider to move all business over toThai or Lufthansa becuase of the better offers for their FT. This depends only on how many direct flights SAS will continue to have out of CPH. If they stop with more long hauls then I will loose my reason to fly with SAS. So it all comes to the EB points and the direct flights on mainly long haul and the big cities in Europe.
