A3 assigns numbers by 11 - so if I get assigned 100000000, the next person will get 100000011. And the person after that 100000022. etc.
I'm not a professional, but it doesn't appear that A3 is likely to go bankrupt.
Even if A3 did go bankrupt, like JK's bankruptcy, we'd probably get Star Alliance status matches.
