Does Aviance status match? If so, what is the best time to attempt a status match so that it includes 2017. If it includes 2017, I gain status the hard way that year and nothing to worry about.

Thanks for any experiences.
Hi avlfutbol and welcome to Bogotá. Anecdotally AV will status match, I asked them about 3 years ago to match LAN Comodoro (OW Emerald) and they said yes, I never did it. Just send an email to them. As for timing I really have no idea.
