Will they stop kicking the dead horse? Now it's not even kicking, they are cutting some barely decent-looking parts off it and try to sell those...
Really shameful. AZ has been dead and rot for the last 20 years at least, one miserable failure after other.

I meant MilleMiglia miles, but now that you mention it I could try to book through AF/KL and bank on them rerouting me in case AZ goes belly up. I have plenty of DL miles as well, but no chance I'll be able to use them in any way that makes sense on a partner.

I was thinking more in terms of a restructure, where certain routes are eliminated as cost-cutting measures. Since LAX-FCO is seasonal already, was wondering if it would be further up on the chopping block.
