I was in PTY on Sunday and stopped by one of the many ConnectMiles information desks (they have put up at least 4 temporarily), to enquire about expiry of status achieved through status match - in my case MP.
The agent told me with no hesitation that it would last 18 months, or until Jan 2017.
I sense a lot of confusion though, so I will ask a different agent on Thursday when I come to PTY again. Just to test the validity of the information.
