As the final leg of my EuroBonus Millionaire adventure, I was flying Aeromexico’s Business Class from Mexico City to Buenos Aires on their newer Boeing 787-9. I was excited to try out this cabin, compare it to their 787-8, and see their renowned Sky Bar. Here’s a full breakdown of how it went—from check-in to landing in Buenos Aires.

As every year, Aeroméxico Rewards has launched its highly anticipated Venta Azul (Blue Sale): program members can redeem points for tickets in Economy Class with a 30% discount! This offer is valid from January 13 to January 20, 2025, and applies to both domestic and international flights.

Scandinavian Airlines SAS seems to be testing out a brand new EuroBonus award search portal (in beta). The site is now hosted under the subdomain future.flysas.com, and shows a redesigned UI and calendar view. For now, after selecting the destination, dates and flights, the new site is redirecting to the old booking portal for the final steps.

New year, new offers! SAS is running a new campaign with discounted tickets for EuroBonus members: 20% discount on award flights TO ALL DESTINATIONS. The discount applies to one-way and return journeys in SAS Go Bonus, SAS Plus Bonus and SAS Business Bonus, for travel between January and April 2025. Children between the ages 2-11 get 50% of the point price, even on the already discounted price. One highlight is the possibility to combine the discount with the FlyPremium benefit (for holders of the SAS Mastercard).

Avianca LifeMiles has introduced several updates for 2025, focusing on increasing mileage earning rates and enhancing elite benefits. Here’s an overview of what’s changing and how members can benefit.

2025 will be a strong year in aviation and air travel, and it’s also impacting loyalty programs and frequent flyer miles faster than ever. Airlines are profiting more than ever from their frequent flyer programs, almost turning into banks with very special, unpredictable, and hard-to-understand miles. With plenty of recent changes announced, it’s always good to reassess your strategy every year. Choosing the best frequent flyer program can be daunting, but this curated list of favorites for 2025 provides a great starting point.
