Since CO only requires documentation of current status, instead of challenge, I think this would be the best option. Any thoughts?
Anybody have any insight on this? I came on here to ask the same question. I am diamond on Delta and am planning the move to *A after the first of the year. If I match on CO (should be good through Feb 2012 right?) then I can select the United E+ seats as of today. Since I am sure United and CO will have the FF programs merged by 2012 why not status match with CO while I still can. I would be shooting for United 1K next year anyway. Thoughts? Strategy?
