Success?

I tried the other way around (OW-->A3) and they declined.

Not sure if it's still active, but VA was matching status from all other airlines (non partner) a while back- so A3 Gold would've gotten you VA Gold and free SkyClub access on DL

I remember some of the guys got matched to FB gold when flying blue held the status match promotion early this year. Then after that using the matched FB gold they matched it to M&M Senator cause LH had a round of promotions targeted at FB members. I got myself only the FB silver from my A3*S.

I just hope VA will match my A3*G next year Jan!

Hi,

I signed up here: SkyMiles Medallion Status Match Challenge (http://www.delta.com/planning_reservations/leisure_travel_program/status_match.jsp)

If you were matched to Gold, you have to collect 16'000 DL MQM within 90 days.

This is a status challenge, not a status match.

Delta requires you to have status to even get the challenge. Same with PMUA.

I tried to Status Match using my Delta Plat to BMI year and was declined because they did not fly the same routes

Your mileage may very ! but it may matter if they are in the same zone

Just been status matched on A3 with my BMI DC Gold Card - was already silver -

took about 5 days. E mail received stating gold card will be received within 2 months

Status Match Campaign. That's interested. Why on earth would A3 suddenly start matching people unless they want to follow bmi's DC approach or, more probably, this is part of an alliance-wide matching campaign.

I should be mentionned in the BMI forum as well, I think.

only applied tongue in cheek really due to the low 20000 limit for gold membership. Reports on BMI forum of A3,TK,SAS status matching BMI DC so maybe it is an unofficial (or unannounced) star alliance matching campaign??

Did you mention in your application that you look forward to flying with them :D

It would be interesting if it's the case as it may be an opportunity for a LH status-match, usually unavailable, and probably a better match than A3's M&B for economy flyers.

I think its targetted only at the poor BMI diamond clubbers following their departure from star. Cant seee M and M doing gold status matches with other star golds :)

Of course, I was speaking of LH matching ex-BMIs :)

that might be wisshul thinking as they have sold to IAG who are offering BA status matching at equivalent level but we can live in hope I guess - DC gold matched to BA gold and LH gold would certainly be a result!

My son, who (still) lives in Barcelona was recently matched to M&B gold status due to Spanair's (was gold there) going out of business. The matter was "handled" (simple question -> done!) by the BCN office of A3, at least this is what he understood. My own understanding is that *A airlines must have decided to match such requests from programs that are no longer in the alliance on an "ad hoc" and, certainly, non-fussy basis.

Were you BMI Gold for 2011 or 2012 ?

I was BMI Gold for 2011 but since they were going out of business did not even try for 2012 and put my miles on UAL

Would be nice if they matched the 2011 status

My BMI Goldmembership year (not card) expires end of this month so was still valid, not sure they would comp you if card expired but it doesnt hurt to try I guess

I have a question regarding the Delta SkyMiles Challenge.

It says "In order to extend your Medallion status after the 90-days, you'll need to earn a specific number of Medallion Qualification Miles (MQMs) or Medallion Qualification Segments (MQSs) within the 90-days of enrolling by flying Delta or Delta Connection®."

Do they really mean flights on Delta only or do they mean MQMs that I could also collect flying other SkyTeam Partner Airlines?

Yes, but this is easiest answered by calling Delta, or posting in the Delta "area". It certainly is not a rule that A3 sets.
