Got it as well, nice offer, unfortunately will only be able to make max 1 booking that qualifies, so only double for me. And the flight I booked a week ago doesn't qualify

I have had a quick read through it but does it state anywhere regarding eligibility if flights are changed after the promotion purchase date ends?

I could easily book 4 Y+ flights but pointless if the dates need to be fixed?

In my experience you retain the bonus. Recently for double tier miles I change my departure city to a city that earns slightly more total miles. Lost my bonus. Tweeted EK, Tool them a week and they granted me double tier miles (as calculated from the new higher city, which is more than I asked them for)

So all bookings already made and due to be flown during the validity period are not eligible? Only flights booked in the next 11 days and flown during the period?

In my experience if you make a booking before registration it counts. But note the terms say booking must be after 20th March so in this case unlikely that one gets the email after the validity period starts (unlike the triple miles promo I got last March)

Thanks. Booked 2 returns DXB-LHR just before the offer email so let's see what happens

Do all segments need to be within the “travel period” for the flight to qualify? I have outbound flight on 3rd April and returning on 12th April (same ticket), would it qualify for the promo?

Not sure for this one but I've had such scenarios where I got the promo just for the qualifying segments

I've just been looking at qualifying flights but I'm not seeing the bonus miles during the booking process, despite registering and being logged in. Is anyone?

I cancelled and re-booked x3 Flex Plus tickets to take advantage of this, but only the usual miles are showing in the app.

Be careful with these offers...

Because the multiplyer is applied only to the cheapest Y fare mile bonus available .they fooled me with this last year when I expected double C class miles

It's on the base miles. This is clearly stated in the T&Cs and has been this way with all such offers.

Are the extra miles given as soon as you fly the segments?
I made a booking yesterday for the segments BRU-HAN & SGN-BRU however I it only calculated the regular miles.
Dates are between 14/11 & 30/11.

I've sometimes seen with these promos that the bonus miles don't appear in the booking, though recently they've more consistently appeared, I'd not worry right now if they don't appear. They usually post immediately, if they were showing prior, but I've also had success in getting EK to credit bonus miles to changed flights by sending them a message on Twitter, took a week but they credited me the miles in the end (and more than the original bonus miles on my booking as I changed my flight to a city in a different region)
