I have an upcoming flight FRA-CPH-IAD-CHS and CHS-EWR-OSL-FRA.
Two questions:
(1) Any way to retrospectively figure out the booking classes? Just call?
(2) Is there any way to check in for this flight with the long-haul SAS legs under my EB account hoping for an upgrade as I'm Diamond BUT some legs under my UA account?

(2) I guess it is all about upgrades... So you would need the numbers registered well in advance. Some airlines' systems allow multiple FFP on one booking, some does not I don't know where SK and UA are in that scale But try, and let us know how it works out. I would do this by accessing the booking first from SK to get your EB number in, the try to see if you can modify the UA legs only from their website.
I guess I‘ll try to modify at check-in once I know whether complimentary upgrades came through or not.

You can always change to UA number at the UA gate, but as domestic upgrades clear earlier, and good E+ seats may be gone, it would be probably be worth contacting United to check if they can manage that

Ask you TA to assign the FFP number by segment(s), the UA see your UA MP number on the relevant segements and SK doesn't mess up credit for the SK segments.

Check the UA forum - I'm not the only one struggling with this problem.

I'm trying to book a flight in January IAD-TLL-IAD. If I choose a return on Sunday, January 13, there are no flights. Same if I try on other round-trips from SAS US destinations, like ORD-TLL-ORD and EWR-TLL-ORD. I'm trying this on SK's site. Are they really not operating any flights to the US on January 13, or they are all full, or it's just SK's booking website is messed up? (I'm guessing the last one). If I choose January 14, it's fine. The only options I seem to get on January 13 involve a layover in ARN or CPH overnight, and ending up on the January 14th trans-atlantic flight.

I played around with it some more. I tried one-way on January 13 and it says no flights at all TLL-IAD, but if I choose CPH-IAD, I get plenty of options including the direct flight and connecting on the CPH-EWR and ARN-EWR flights. So is it just no capacity on the TLL-CPH and TLL-ARN legs on Jaunary 13, or some IT problem?

I think I found the answer to my question -- no morning flights TLL-CPH or TLL-ARN on Sunday January 13. On other days they have them, on SK flight numbers operated by Cityjet. I guess they just decided not to operate those flights on that morning.

You will see very few domestic flight in Norway on Sundays, ann SH internationals like services to TLL undergoes a similar logic.

A quick question...
Does SAS still only offer one complimentary drink on longhaul (to HKG) economy?
I have a choice between Turkish Airlines and SAS, and the drinks matter. This is a decision between earning miles, or general comfort!

I can't access the Star Alliance award tables as https://www.sas.se/eurobonus/poangtabeller/ neither in Firefox nor in Chrome. SAS has obviously made some change to the web site. Does anybody have a link that works?
