Yes, AZ is actually doing status-match (you may apply until 31 october 2009) but it may be worthful if you use ST carriers.
Otherwise if you love *A carriers I suggest to put all your points in a TK account: you can reach GOLD with just 40K miles in 12 months.
Forget about LH Senator and its 100K miles....!

Ok, it is not so easy and clear how to spend miles with TK (but they are very open to upgrades!) but who cares if you are interested in the status only and its other benefits choose TK.
