Might be a small glich in the fact that the CPH-VIE on the 24th was the inagural flight... Perhaps it was not/ is not in the system, I dont know...I was on the same flight, and my Points have also not yet posted...Thouh my conecting ARN-CPH the same day has posted, and also the return (VIE- (OS)CPH-ARN)...

Interesting... When I was checking in at CPH at the priority (Plus/Gold counter, since I do have CM Gold), the check-in agent almost directed us to OS counter - he didn't realize SK just started flying (again?) to VIE. I'll account it to gremlins in this new segment. At least we start the retro-points registration tomorrow.

Yes, about the same experience with me, too. Approx 2 hours - both points and the flight detail is showing.
Now I wait for Monday to do the retro claim for the return segment... and hopefully get my Gold package soon after - just in time for my next flight.

Yes, mine are also missing for soon a month. In general, my point listing has been totally off for a month; all my prior flights are missing form the overview. The points are there, but it looks like I became Diamond only through credit cards and hotels. I've been considering it somekind of data-error for month now, but I'm thinking whether I should retro-claim.
Never done that before and *G was on the boarding card.

Long haul flights seem to post overnight or the next day. However, intra-EU flights seem to take anywhere between 7-14 days easy.
The irony is that when you book on the SK page they show you the earnings before even paying and they can just post the points the second your plane lands. It would be very interesting (and most likely disappointing) to see the process that SK uses for posting points. The greatly varying amount of time it takes between flights to post the points makes it look like a manual process.
When flying OW I find that points typically post the next day, even if you fly a different airline than the program you are posting to.
