I don't believe that AA does matches. They only do challenges. Search this thread for the specifics. As you already have status with AA, I don't see how this will work. It does sound like a stretch to me.

Correct... You could try to get a status match on to a third carrier... but going back to AA would not work, as they have the 'challenge' and you are an elite already...
