Hello yvonne11-ga,

Unfortunately, Ansett's Global Rewards Program has been frozen, and
therefore it is not possible to accrue, redeem, or transfer points at
this time. It is also not possible to view your current rewards
statement.

Q: "Can I transfer my Global Rewards(tm) points to another Star
Alliance frequent flyer program?"
A: As the frequent flyer programs of each Star Alliance airline is
independently operated in each airline's home country, it has
unfortunately, not previously been, nor is it currently possible to
transfer your points or mileage balance from one Star Alliance
airline's frequent flyer program to another.

The following page provides further details:

If you feel this sufficiently answers your question, please let me
know and I will repost it as an answer :)

Hello:

The latest news form the Global Rewards Action commitee revealed that
there is little hope for any members to get there global rewards
points back. According to the members of Action Group, there's little
hope of global rewards being "made whole," either through the normal
liquidation process or class-action lawsuits and there seems no place
to get your points statement back.

BUT I MAY BE WRONG. I assume that you want to get advantage from some
other programs by showing them your points statement. The best place
to post your question is http://www.frequentflyerclub.com.au. They are
the proven authority on such questions.

You should also try the following websites for your questions:

It might also be impossible to reddeem any of your points to any of
the star alliance members.
