About this listen

Since SAS launched a promo last year offering a million frequent flyer points to members who flew with 15 SkyTeam partner airlines, many other airlines have launched copycat promos.

Note: since this episode was recoreded, Velocity have announced extra benefits for Platinum Plus members.
