Dear EtihadHelp,
Having to book some trips to Asia, I'd like to know, which status benefits for AirBerlin topbonus status holders are still granted? And, if any, how long you plan to do so?
I can't find any official statements. Neither from AB, nor topbonus nor Etihad.

Hi there, yes, any change in your travel date will require a reissued ticket if your booking is eligible for date changes. You may make this change through the 'Manage my booking' function on our website, or contact our Reservations team via these numbers: http://www.etihad.com/en-ae/about-us/contact-us/ *Max

Dismal Service from Retro Claims Department
Hi Etihad help,
While I generally find Etihad an excellent airline to fly with, the Retro Claims process is very frustrating and seems to be getting worse.
It continually takes several weeks/months for miles due to be credited to my Guest Account. Numerous emails are required with the Retro Claims department typically taking a week to respond to each email with an unhelpful generic statement just stating that the claim is under review.
It used to be the case that the problem was mainly when claiming miles with partner airlines. However, it is now even the case with Etihad Flights booked directly through the Etihad website which seems completely unnecessary.
Most recently, I am due miles from two Virgin Australia flights. I have been credited miles for one leg of each flight but still waiting for the miles from the other legs. I would appreciate if you could resolve this situation as a priority.
Thanks.

(Re-) Qualification Platinum
Hi Etihad Help,
I have two questions in regards to status (re-)qualification and expiry date.
1. could you kindly confirm if my understanding of the requalification and new qualification terms are correct?
My Platinum status is valid until 31/12/2017 (+3 month Platinum benefits).
On 31/12/2017 I will have 46 segments
and I will be downgraded to Gold status.
(only 46 of 48 segments required for re-qualification)
In January I will fly 14 segments which will result in a total of 60 segments within 12 rolling months and therefore I should reach Platinum status again.
(60 of 60 segments required for NEW qualification).
2. If above is correct, the new reached Platinum status should be valid for the rest of the qualification year (2018) + 1 year (=31/12/2019)
Could you kindly check the above and confirm if it is correct or if your understanding of the terms are different.
Thank you very much.
