"Friend's bonus" 1000 miles ?
Today, I received 1000 award miles on my FB account under the name "FRIEND'S BONUS". I have no idea what this means.
It's not related to Faster Miles, I haven't filled any satisfaction survey recently for which I hadn't received miles and I haven't been otherwise irroped or anything.
Any guesses?

Same here! It has a different description, as my KLM summary is in Dutch language. It says "BONUS VIA INTRODUC{ "
(Including the "{", whatever that means... )
It is dated March 5th. No clue whatever this is. Did not sign up for any promotions because there weren't any. Or maybe something more than 12 months ago which I already forgot.

Same here - 1,000 miles posted on 5th March. As it happens, I travelled with a friend on 2nd March (but separate bookings, so how would they know?) and thought it was something to do with that. I was gonna post a question thread here, but AR beat me to it!

I received it as well. With English description, while my account is registered Dutch. No clue where this came for tho. Guess a 'thank you KLM for $10' is in order

Perhaps its a bonus for those of us who have posted kind (= friendly) comments about AF/KL/FB here on FlyerTalk? Anyone know a non-FTer FB Elite(+) whos received this wonderful gift?
Although FB arent partuicularly famous for their command of good English, it is interesting to note that the label is "Friends Bonus" (i.e. singular possessive) not "Friends Bonus" (i.e. the bonus of/for friends) or "Friends Bonus."

That would scare me even more; AFKL being able to match FT nick with FB number...
