Crediting points and status from Etihad

Hadn’t thought of that! But surely if you have booked tix and added FF number before potential plug pull, they would still have to honour? Or is that very naive?
Generally, if such happens between booking and travel you would be out of luck.
 
'surely if you have booked tix and added FF number before potential plug pull, they would still have to honour?'

Not at all sure.

Say any of us bought tickets for April direct off Etihad, and they soon announce the deal is off from March 31, I can bet Etihad will not waive any cancel fees, NOR will Velocity offer any SC if flights are taken etc.

I went through a travel agent for our Business flights in March next year, gave her both my and my wife’s VA number and both show up on the Etihad website.

But thanks for the heads up over this. I will check again closer to departure to make sure all is okay. I’m also counting on SCs and eligible sectors in particular. It worked fine the last two times we flew Etihad.
