SPANAIR 破綻後の処理 Aftermath of Spanair's bankruptcy

少し前にニュースになりましたが、その後の処遇に進展があったようです。しかもその内容がマイラーには衝撃的です。

“Star Alliance offers Status Match to SpanairStar Gold and Silver Card Holders
“With Spanair having ceased operations since 27 January this year, the airline’s Frequent Flyer Programme (FFP), SpanairStar, has also been discontinued.
“In appreciation of Spanair’s FFP members’ loyalty, all SpanairStar Gold and Silver card holders are being contacted with a status match offer from several Star Alliance member carrier’s FFP. Please note however, that the accumulated miles can unfortunately not be transferred into other Star Alliance member airline FFPs.
“If you are SpanairStar Gold or Silver member and still haven’t received the email from Spanair about the SpanairStar Status Match by 23 February, please contact us at status.match@staralliance.com and we will direct your concern to Spanair. Please include your name, your SpanairStar status and your SpanairStar FFP number.”
It’s not yet clear which frequent flyer programmes members will be offered status match within.
要はエリートステータスは別のキャリアーに引き継がれるものの、ためてはマイルはさよ～なら～ってことのようです。
これは実に恐ろしいですね。JALの破綻（あと米系キャリアーのチャプター１１もそうですね）の際にはちゃんとマイレージも保護されましたので、全く混乱はなかったわけですが、本来はこれが普通なのかもしれませんね。
こんな恐ろしい目に合わないためにも皆様JAL,ANAを応援しましょう！！
