New Gold Cards Arriving with expiry Nov 24 2017

Just received 2 new A3 Gold Cards in France with expiry of Nov. 24, 2017. Well done, Aegean, getting these cards out before the old ones expire.

Mods: I couldn't find a thread related to this for this year. Please move if necessary. Thanks.

When does the postmark say it was sent?

No postmark with a date but it was sent from the Netherlands. No date on the letter either.

Well, if Europe is just getting their new cards now, I should get mine in Canada around mid-November, lol.

Nothing yet in Greece though. Last year I believe the Greek cards were received first.

Actually there have already been some reports about cards received in Greece in this thread ^

Crap, then it seems ELTA ate my card

Perhaps it has to do with the date of re-qualification? Could the people that already received the card post at what date they requalified?
I requalified end of august, so 1.5 months ago. Maybe I just missed the cut for the first batch of cards.

The 2 cards that arrived at my address are for tenants. I don't know when they requalified but it would be earlier than April 2016. But, I requalified in mid February 2016 and my card has not yet arrived. The last name of the cards that came begins with B. Mine is much later in the alphabet, perhaps that is why. I will repost when the next card arrives. Expecting 2 at our household.

Not sure this has anything to do with it. I requalified back in March or April (?) and I have yet to receive anything (at my Greek address which is what A3 have). Let's see...

Smile received card

Card received today.. no postmark, but there is a date of 13/10 on a label glued to the envelope. Also, above my name there is a bar code and the writing 002208-GRE written next to it. If of any help, I've been a memeber since the programme first started, and requalified already in May or June... Kudos to Aegean for getting the card out more than a month in advance this time, although I had no issues at all neither in Sweden nor in Germany this morning to use the Apple Wallet version of the card to gain access. Digression: My Rimowa e-tag did not work when checking in in Gothenburg in Sweden... the very pretty blonde lady even called over her colleague to show "the coolest luggage tag ever" and informed me I am too ahead of my time

elta likes eating cards.. when i was a student at Kapodistriako they ate so many of my swedish bank cards that my bank manager sent it by DHL after second card was eaten by ELTA... to quote pangalos: ta fagame ola mazi

Yes limited partners so far. LH only with BR/TCX/UA/Condor in trials. I would say it will be a while before you can use them on a A3 flight if ever I just hope its not one of these things that are a one hit wonder. You need 80% of airlines to be partners to even make it work.

Card and baggage tag arrived today (Poland), and i've heard several other reports of delivery of the new card locally, so that's another datapoint.

Well done this year, Aegean ;-)
