Apparently now the govt. is saying that they are keeping a close watch on flight prices. But yes things will be more expensive now.

9W seems to be flying another day. They've dropped their demand from 1000 CR to 400 CR from the banks. The banks still haven't decided if it's worth paying that much to keep them alive.
I don't know how they're flying tomorrow other than by not paying anyone anything I guess.
Exim bank has recalled their entire 2000 CR loan. They guaranteed the original Citibank US loan. So now 9W will have to give up 10 77Ws to them!

In the scheme of things JP miles holders may not have large amount of miles. Redemption are at a ridiculous rate......besides if they can be used on Etihad when THEY want to get rid of the miles thru redemption on EY.

And while the pilots are not swiping their cards to pay for fuel 9W is having to pay up first daily before IOC is filling up the tanks.

It will be interesting to see if, upon shut-down of 9W, 9W program elites get any elite status match opportunities using their 9W elite status. I don't recall EY giving AB elites an automatic EY status match due to the collapse of AB.

No they didn’t. TopBonus had just before going down done a very aggressive status matching campaign giving OWE status if I recall to almost anyone. The only thing they allowed when AB & TopBonus sank was only Y redemption on EK for a few months at a slightly lower than EK’s disgraceful rates.

RIP 9W.
They stopped flying tonight. They say they have temporarily suspended operations but it looks like the end.
The banks have refused to release 400CR requested by them to carry on operations without additional collaterals.
The firms that submitted EoIs have till May 10 to submit binding bids. What they’re bidding for now I don’t know. They have no assets, no routes and come 10 May probably no license to fly either and over $1 bil debt.
We will miss you 9W. If only Goyal hadn’t been such a headstrong @$$ till the end and sold of his shares earlier... well there might be a few more “if onlys” but that was the last reasonable one.

I don’t know if there are legal and technical ramifications to “temporarily suspended” however they certainly can’t say they’ve shut shop and demand investors come in and buy them out.
