Is this any use?
Martin Lewis mentioned it recently.
Pension Tracing Service----It's a Government site.

Careful with googling that. The first site is a commercial product and they will probably use your data in nefarious ways.

This is the real deal: https://www.findpensioncontacts.service.gov.uk/public-sector

I’ve tried this, the gov website can’t locate Astraeus as being a company

Don't know if it is relevant to your question, but in its last year of existance (2011) Astraeus was owned by an Icelandic company.

Don't know when the acquisition by the Icelandic company happened.

Back to Martin Lewes then with considerable care. I too tried the Government website for Air Europe but that too drew a blank as it was "archived".. I say " considerable care", alluding to Superpilot's advice. General care always needed in googling and hitting links. Can lead you down a long trail of sales jargon that do not get you to where you are searching.

Ref my post #4. I worked for Astraeus, get an Astraeus pension, and it comes from Standard Life. Maybe start there; it will avoid a few rabbit-holes.
