It's been years I'm trying to get Gold status from Alitalia or Aeroflot, they never replied to my requests, just like Etihad..
What I meant was that El Al matmid would not GIVE OUT a match to someone who has Aegean gold, but they would give to someone who has Turkish Gold, but only if they are provided with a full year of statements (I only had 8 months, so they declined a match because a full year is required)
Aeroflot replied that they don't have a statusmatching campaign at the moment, which led me to beleive that they once did, and after a bit of searching, i found that around 2 years ago they had an offer that anyone who flies 2 round trips in business, or 3 round trips in economy, is eligible for a status match.
Air Berlin gave me a match to my Turkish Gold but refused to give me a match to my Aegean.
United just now gave me a match (A challenge - Gold for 90 days, and to keep it for a year i need 12,500 base PQMs or 15 segments on United, United Express, or Copa Airlines) because of my Air Berlin Gold (although i sent them copy of Virgin Silver aswell - might have done the trick.)
