Methodology
How FlightMaxer ranks every EuroBonus promotion.
A three-stage process, repeated every week, designed to surface only the promotions that actually move the needle for a Nordic EuroBonus member.
- 01
Aggregate every source, daily
Our scrapers and editors monitor SAS owned channels, every Star Alliance carrier still relevant after the SkyTeam transition, SkyTeam earning rules, Amex Sweden Membership Rewards, SEB Eurocard, Radisson Rewards, Strawberry, Hilton Honors, Marriott Bonvoy, and 40+ shopping portals.
- 02
Score each offer by value-per-point
Every promotion is normalised against current EuroBonus reward-seat availability on the routes that matter to Nordic members (ARN, CPH, OSL, HEL trunk routes plus long-haul to BKK, NRT, EWR, LAX). The output is value-per-point in SEK — not marketing copy.
- 03
Rank, write, deliver
Editors verify each top-scoring offer, write a 2-sentence brief, attach the deadline and the direct booking link, and ship the issue every Monday at 07:00 CET. Low-yield offers are explicitly excluded — we do not pad the list.
What value-per-point actually means
Value-per-point is the marginal SEK value you receive for each EuroBonus point earned (or saved) by acting on a promotion. We use a 90-day rolling average of business-class reward redemption value on the routes most relevant to Nordic members, then cross-check against revenue ticket prices in the same fare buckets. An Amex MR transfer bonus that converts at 0.18 SEK/pt beats a hotel bonus at 0.11 SEK/pt — and we rank accordingly.
What we deliberately exclude
- · Cashback or "X% off" offers with no point earning component.
- · Promotions limited to non-Nordic markets (UK, US, DACH).
- · Status fast-tracks that don't survive the renewal cycle.
- · Anything below 0.08 SEK/pt — even if SAS markets it heavily.
