Dear XXX:

Thank you for contacting the OnePass Service Center. .

OnePass offers a promotion that matches the elite status of some airline frequent flyer programs with an equivalent level in the OnePass Elite program. .We are unable to process your request because we do not match Star Alliance partner airlines.

Regards,

XXX
OnePass Customer Service Manager
