New partner for EK!

[alieninperth]

I have to say, I am surprised. It doesn't look like a code share so no using QFFpts on these flights. Skywards - Partners - easyJet

Looks like EK are trying to diminish their points liability!

Seems like 10,000 EK miles ~ 30 GBP. e.g. LGW-DUS.

Anyone find any 7,500 mile redemptions?

I'm not surprised that EK have landed themselves an intra-Europe Partner.
And in many ways Easy jet is a good choice because it does not hub out of any one city; so this type of airline is great for those openjaw Europe tix. But.............imagine connecting from a EK economy 30kg ticket to an Easyjet flight?

Or EK first!

So all it seems to be that you can now redeem Skyward miles to get flights on Easyjet. Doesn't seem to be much more to it at the moment.

I think if FR's bid for EI fails then EK would be a strong contender to make an offer!
