I'm currently NZ*G and looking for status matches. I tried emailing Flying Blue based on their recent promotion but got nowhere.

Not so concerned about SkyTeam (though it would be handy for China Southern and soon Garuda) - the thing I'm really looking for is a status match with OW so I can access Qantas lounges when I fly with them.

I've read through this thread but can't find any simple matches. Has anyone had any luck matching NZ*G (or equivalent) with an OW airline?
