Update summary from nufnuf77:
The status update currently seems to take about 15-20 calendar days. No email is sent immediately upon upgrade, but one may be received later (within a week or so). One has to visit the MilleMiglia site and look at one's card displayed under profile. The upgrades are probably processed externally to Alitalia, as neither Freccia Alata Plus line knew anything about it and one member received and email back from external processing team.
Physical card and upgrade voucher code to give status to someone else - 'Freccia Alata for you' are reported to arrive approx 5-10 days after the upgrade has been processed, depending on your postal address.
The coucher for 'Freccia Alata forYou' arrives in the welcome pack and has instructions and rules on how you can use this unique code to upgrade a family member/friend to Freccia Alata status for free. Can only be used once and the person receiving cannot be changed after it is applied.
The 'Business for you' upgrade (4x) is available from the moment one's status shows as Freccia Alata Plus. These 4 upgrade vouchers can be used for oneself or any other nominated person, and can be used by phoning the call centre. To upgrade, the original flight must be booked in P(Classica Plus) or Y, B, M and H(Classica). Upgrade inventory needed seems to be 'Z' class for business and 'A' class for Classica Plus.
It costs: 1 voucher to upgrade P-->Z(Business);
1 voucher for Y/B/M/H-->A(Classica Plus);
2 vouchers to upgrade Y/B/H/M-->Z(Business).
The new expiry date (March 2016 or 2017) will depend on your current status/card submitted, as per this quote from Alitalia:

The existing MM program was supposed to be discontinued, with all the miles expiring etc, and a new one to start sometime soon. Sounds ridiculous, but that's what they had been planning.
The email is simply saying that the present form of the MM program itself is going to continue for longer. It doesn't have any effect on validity of status levels.

Hi everybody,
I currently would like to match my AA EXP status to Freccia Alata Plus Club on a recently opened Milleaccount account.
I understand AZ currently aren't running the status match offer, but reading around here it seems they are processing match requests anyway. Is this right? Can I just send in my application? Or do I have to wait until they start a new promotion? In this case, any idea when this will be?

The best answer you can get is the one from Alitalia. Just ask them, and if you are lucky and do your homework, you might get what you are asking for. In general, people tend to say something is not possible without even trying, whereas any success you can reach usually comes after you have tried, not after you have given up. Good luck.

I don't know if my matched Alata Plus has been downgraded or something, since my last OK flights have shown no status. At least no skypriority benefits, and now latest the check-in agent wondered why he could see "basic" status on his computer while I gave him my alata plus card.
Previously (months ago), my AF flights have recorded skypriority benefits through my alata plus card...

So everyone (who did not requal on flights) have now super soft landed 2 levels?
Freccia alata plus to Ulisse club and Freccia alata to member.
Anyone got the Ulisse club cards yet? Automatically? At least extra luggage on ST.

Yup—Ulisse for me. No sign of cards, or even an email about the soft landing.
