New user, moving to Dar es Salaam

Hi!
I'm about to move to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and will be travelling 4 or 5 times a year (or more) back and forth between Stockholm (ARN) and Dar es Salaam (DAR) via Amsterdam.
Does anyone have any ideas how can reach som nice levels of membership in Sky Team program? I'm a total newcomer to this program, not knowing anything at all!

I suggest you join FB (Flying Blue) after 4 round trips you gonna have achived Gold level and you will get lounge axcess and some other perks (look at www.klm.se). Beware that V class only earn 25% mileage so don't book that particular ticket class.

Many airlines flying out of Dar including KL have upgrade deals - buy full fare Y - fly C. So you should look into these. Check with on of the larger travel agents for deals. BA, EK and Gulf also used to have good deals - but ek and gulf first fly you to the gulf. It is also worth checking Nairobi for good deals as this is one of the best places to buy cheap tickets in that part of the world.
