ARN-GOT

Just booked KLR-ARN-GOT-FRA. Is it correct that miles earned on ARN-GOT ONLY counts towards a higher level? Dont care about the 600 miles for travel, but I need the miles to get my last Silver card in EB.
After june I will move to AC

Are you credit the miles to EuroBonus? In that case

KLR-ARN 600 basic points(1200 if full fare)
ARN-GOT 600 basic points(1200 if full fare)
GOT-FRA 1200 basic points(2400 if full fare)

The reason why you will get 600 basic points for ARN-GOT is that you have a connecting flight from KLR and SAS Is the only one who flies ARN-KLR and therefore you will earn basic points to GOT.

Have a nice flight

I made a little misstake

Even if you only fly ARN-GOT-ARN you will earn 600 basic points per way(points valid to upgrade your status level but not points you can travel for).

Since you are starting in KLR you will earn both basic points and those points will also be points for use for travel.

Wouldn't he in fact get the points on ARN-GOT even though the routing would be ARN-GOT-FRA since he continues on with an international flight from GOT (as long as its an SK or "Well connected" flight) the same day?!

Mileage run suggestion

SK 192 K 29MAR 6 KLRARN HK1
SK 689 J 29MAR 6 ARNLIN HK1
SK 690 J 29MAR 6 LINARN HK1
SK1159 K 29MAR 6 ARNVXO HK1

Youth ticket domestic Sweden and then one day shopping in business class to Milano. This would be 8400 basic points and no hotel stay needed.

I must have missed something here...

There's only 50 minutes between SK 689 arrival and SK 690 departure. How much shopping can one do?

How can I get a good price? ARN-LIN-ARN costs SEK 13000 in J on March 29th. Not a really good milage run :-)

I can't book KLR-ARN-LIN with a youth fare, so how can I get a good fare?

Its not so hard for me to find great fares

This price can be booked online at www.sas.se or by your local travel agency.

Just mention one day shopping and you are all set.

ARN-LIN-ARN in economy one day shopping is 1480SEK.

Does this business fare qualify for double mileage?

Yes. If you credit to SAS EuroBonus you will get 3600+3600=7200 basic points. You will also get 2(4 possible if you fly ARN-CPH-MIL) qualiflying flights(until 31st of March).

After 31/3 you will get 15% more basic points in C as EBS and 25% more as EBG/EBP. This means that a gold member will earn 9000 basic points on a one day trip to Milano.

I have been on those flights twice since they started with one day shopping concept.

Since you are flying on a business class ticket you will get lounge access in ARN,MXP and CPH.

The lounge in MXP is shared with KLM and EL Al for some strange reason.

I wont have the ability to go this date, already booked a run to FRA (26-28 april).

Any suggestions on how to book a *A flight from FRA-??? on april 27? I wont have much to do that day and some more miles to reach my last EB Silver card (before i change to AC in july) would be nice.
