As times (unfortunately) change, this is also reflected in the Miles+Bonus program of Greek airline Aegean Airlines.

Not too far away geographically, Greece is indeed dealing with two politically uncomfortable neighbours in Russia and Iran. As in more distant countries, military service is regaining importance here as well.

As it has been the case in the program for young parents during parental leave, Miles+Bonus now allows you to maintain your elite status even in the case of military service without corresponding program activity. This is the first time in the world that a program plays such a role in contributing to the security of its country.
