T&C only cover a company so far, UA specifically said these were lifetime benefits, not benefits for as long as the program was in place. Also the post on FT where the question was asked and answered with these benefits are for life.

That said, an FT’r would have been better starting the loss suit or talking to the attorneys to get the complaint amended so that it is correctly worded. Just because the T&C say they can amend at any time, there are still some rules they have to follow.

Might there be merit to a lawsuit about MM? Yes.
Does this merit anything? Maybe a frivolous lawsuit fine.
My first thought when reading this was that it was written by a ten year old, it’s just so poorly written.

Yeah…I don’t really think there was any doubt that LaTAM was going to oneworld.

Sweet. I just booked a trip to BOG, and this couldn’t have come at a better time.

So this more or less confirms that LAN+TAM will end up in Oneworld since they couldn’t be a part of alliance that included Avianca?
