Last edit by: NWIFlyer
With the evolution of the Miles&Bonus program, there are a number of threads on this forum that contain outdated information, plus a further set that - whilst describing the new program - contain conflicting information that has only been crystallised as we all discover how certain aspects of the program either work or are interpreted.

It is perhaps therefore unsurprising that many new members find searching through this myriad of threads a little daunting, and consequently they post a question in one of the FAQ threads.

This tends to irk those who've been around for a while who expect the new posters to at least do some basic searching before posting a question that has probably been asked many times before. This also causes the forums to become very congested and less easy to read through with the same question being asked and answered many times.

I am therefore creating a thread, which will be stickied, for anyone to ask any question they like about the M&B program where they are unsure or it's not obvious where they should be posting it.

There is no such thing in this thread as a stupid question, no issue with asking a repeat question, and any answers should be 100% flame-free. I will take a dim view of anyone that abuses a member or provides a less than helpful answer (such as 'do a search') to any question asked in here, because this is being created to benefit all of us so the other threads flow more cleanly. Thank you for your co-operation on this.

It might be that I move questions to more appropriate threads so they receive an answer more quickly, but if I do so I will always add a note to indicate where they originated, and ask that the flame-free answer principle be respected.

Yes SKG needs a re-clear of security for a connection DOM--> INT or INT--> DOM.
I also had to re-clear security at a DOM-->Schengen connection at ATH last time I did this.

SKG: DOM (Schengen) -> DOM (Schengen) as well.
ATH: Unless one deplanes at one of the low-numbered gates, there's no security for DOM (Schengen) -> DOM (Schengen).

Could anyone advise how quickly Miles are usually re-credited to frequent flyer accounts after a miles redemption flight is cancelled via the call centre?

Thanks.

Advance Seat Assignments

Hello! I will be taking my first flight on Aegean next month and can't figure out how to purchase a seat assignment in advance. My ticket was purchased through United and I have connecting flights from the EU to and from Athens on A3. I have tried A3's website and although my flights show, I can't find the option to purchase a seat assignment. Maybe I'm overlooking something or maybe I can't purchase a seat on line since I didn't purchase the ticket from A3.

Pat

It should be shown below the passenger details column. My guess is that if it's not there, you correctly assumed because it's not on A3 stock. Perhaps you could call up and find out. Let us know how you get on!

Quick and easy question: Do I understand correctly that a A3*G gets a free checked bag also on a Go Light fare? Looking at AMS-ATH-RHO.

Thank you!

Has A3/OA stopped flying to PVK? I can't find a post in this forum but also I can't find flights (end of may).

Thank you again

This year they'll fly ATH-PVK from 13 June till 12 October only. Sky Express flies there via CFU (not daily, though) but for a price of about 350 € (return).

Do economy tickets upgraded to business using a gold voucher count towards status (or even earn miles)?
The 1 (of 4) flights I upgraded on an itinerary hasn't tracked in my account, and my manual miles claim got rejected "95-Your request has been rejected.".
thanks

Yes they do count towards status and earn miles.
Send an email to CS, they will correct it.
