Aerolíneas Argentinas has announced a new "Status Match Challenge" for elite members of airline and hotel FFPs. T&C are explained
here in Spanish.
People allowed to match to Aerolíneas Plus Oro or Platino membership (Skyteam Elite and Elite Plus) are basically anyone except for Skyteam Elites and Elite Plus -- "airlines and hotel chains participating in the Challenge are: Latampass, Gol Smiles, Avianca LifeMiles, Iberia Plus, United Mileage Plus, AAdvantage, BA Executive Club and Hilton Honors. This list is open, and any other airline or hotel chain submitted by the applicant is subject to approval by Aerolíneas Plus. Skyteam alliance airlines are not eligible to participate in the Challenge"
Applicants must send a picture of their card or mileage statement showing their Elite status (which must not expire within 3 months of the submittal), their AR Plus member number and their full names and e-mail address to
[email protected]. An e-mail confirmation will be sent by AR provided the status match request has been granted. The AR Plus Oro or Platino status will be valid for one year, and then it's up to each one to re-qualify following AR's rules.
