SAS and Scandic Hotels have announced a fresh strategic alliance aimed at boosting customer advantages through their loyalty schemes. Expected to launch in the early months of next year, this partnership will provide members of SAS’s EuroBonus and Scandic Friends access to improved rewards and a more effortless travel experience. The cooperation seeks to bring together the offerings of both brands, establishing a more cohesive experience for frequent travelers.

In the initial rollout, the initiative will introduce status equivalency between the two loyalty programs, simplifying access to unique advantages. Moreover, a streamlined process for transferring points will be implemented, allowing members to gather and use points across both platforms more effectively. These updates are aimed at enhancing the travel and accommodation process, particularly for those who frequently fly with SAS and stay at Scandic Hotels.

For travelers, this collaboration offers increased adaptability and options by uniting air travel and accommodation services, resulting in a more unified and hassle-free travel experience. The status equivalency is particularly useful for regular flyers and hotel guests, as it grants access to a broader range of benefits without needing to manage loyalty across different schemes.

The simplified point conversion system also ensures that travelers can accumulate rewards faster and utilize them for a wider selection of options. Whether for seat upgrades, complimentary accommodations, or other perks, the collaboration aims to make it easier for travelers to take full advantage of their loyalty memberships.

For those who frequently travel within the Nordic countries, this partnership brings significant improvements in terms of ease and value. The combined loyalty benefits will allow travelers to save both time and effort, while enjoying a more streamlined process from booking flights to reserving accommodations.

In conclusion, the collaboration between SAS and Scandic represents an important move for travelers, offering them new opportunities to maximize their loyalty rewards. By synchronizing their services, both companies are making it more straightforward for customers to gain access to perks that elevate their overall travel experience.
