EuroBonus, SAS’s frequent flyer program, regularly offers discount promotions for award flights. There is currently a particularly attractive offer: for travel until September 30, 2026, all award flights are discounted by 25%.

SAS EuroBonus Award Chart
Fortunately, EuroBonus does not (yet) use dynamic pricing, at least when award flight inventory is available. In such cases, a fixed award chart applies. Redemptions remain comparatively attractive despite the recent devaluation.
On long-haul routes, you pay per direction (discount not yet deducted):
- 30,000 points in Economy Class (includes checked baggage)
- 45,000 points in Premium Economy
- 60,000 points in Business Class
On short-haul routes, it is slightly more complex due to different zones. The most exciting options are domestic flights and flights within the Nordic+ zone (Scandinavia, Baltics, Germany & Poland). One-way flights there cost:
| Regions | Economy class | SAS Plus | Business class |
|---|---|---|---|
| Domestic DK / SE / NO | 5,000 points | 10,000 points | – |
| Within Nordic | 10,000 points | – | 20,000 points |
Rest of Europe  Nordic |
15,000 points | – | 35,000 points |
| Rest of Europe Rest of Europe |
25,000 points | – | 40,000 points |
