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 new, recognized status will be valid until March 31, 2016. If the status in the existing Frequent Flyer Program expires after March 31, 2016, the equivalent status recognized within the MilleMiglia Program will be valid until March 31, 2017. In no case will lifetime cards be issued.
Matching tiers
Silver level - Ulisse Club
Gold level - Freccia Alata Club <-- Star Alliance Gold
Platinum level - Freccia Alata Plus Club <-- OW Emerald or AA EXP (?)

Going by the (relatively) quick turn-around, looks like they're working through most of the backlog.

A further data-point.

Physical card received in mail yesterday (26 August).

How did you request such a statement from EY? Through which channels?

Thanks!
I approached through the Premium Channel too, they then replied via email than it took me another mail to actually get what I wanted.

Unfortunately AZ didnt take note of that

Received my match on Aug 7th. Still no card though.

Does anybody know when changes are reflected in Skyteam systems? KLM for example?

As stated on the status match page, it can take 3 weeks for the status to propagate through to all partners.

Applied 16th August - scan of BA Silver card exp Dec2016

"Card" on Alitalia website today shows Freccia Alata Club, exp Mar2017

No email confirmation yet received (card changed from no-status green to gold some time today).

I've got a KLM flight (economy) coming up next week and will see if this will get me in the lounge. It's a positioning flight for an ex-EU BA flight so no biggie if not.

Print the card from the AZ MilleMiglia website, and/or download it to your phone - just in case your new status takes it time to filter through the system .....

I should take about 3-5 days and he will see his status card change online in his alitalia account. In a few weeks he should also receive the physical card.

I gave mine to a friend and it took 3 weeks and several phone calls.

Ultimately I called de CFA+ phone number. They did a new request with the code I gave them and my friend's MM card number and 2 days after his account showed his new status.

Would you mind sharing what is the expiry of his Alata status? Is it March 2016 or 2017?
