I'm not really concerned about old points being honoured, though you'd think for people with balances over some X amount, Tesna might sweeten the deal by saying "okay, we'll turn that credit into free flights on the tesna network to the value of the points" or something. You have to feel some sympathy for those that lost many hundreds of thousands of points in the scheme and feel cheated (I am not one of these).

I think the bigger issue is the newser scheme and AN's chances of getting loyalty back and keeping it which is what they need to remain even half decently viable. Right now, it looks like a big fat clunker.
(although the latest newspaper reports seem to indicate that elite status would be carried over, which is something).
