I did a status match from AA Platinum (One World Sapphire) back in January, as having moved to PDX unfortunately find AA to be severely lacking. I don't really need to go to DFW to get from PDX to DCA....

UA comped me to *A Gold (UA Premier Gold) for 90 days during which I had to fly 22 qualifying segments or 17,500 qualifying miles on UA or CO metal or UA/CO flight #'s on United Express. I flew 18,500 and now have gold for the remainder of the year. Already flown around 20K miles and probably will be close to 70K by the end of the year.

Google "United Airlines Status Match" for details. Be aware UA is totally dysfunctional at the moment due to their integration with CO. I called yesterday and was on hold for 2:05 before giving up. This morning early I was relatively lucky, eventually getting through to a CSR after 'only' 52 minutes....
