My statusmatch.com acquired gold status was about to expire on May 1st, but today the Spirit website shows it has been extended to July 31st. Later received this email explaining the extension challenge:
Not a good deal because it has to be a new booking. Existing bookings for the same period do not count.
Here's the perfect opportunity to continue enjoying your Free Spirit GoldŽ Status! Meet the travel challenge requirement below to extend your Status Match through the end of 2024.
Travel Challenge:
Complete four roundtrip flights now through July 31, 2024.
