Status Matching?
Maybe the search function is down as I can't find any threads about status matching.
Seeing as CO is probably joining the Star Alliance later this year, it may be my last chance to request a status match against my UA account. Typically airlines won't match status within their own alliance.
Any experiences in status matching by CO? With UA?

As of late, CO is still status matching UA elites. Out of curiosity, why are you switching from UA to CO?

This makes sense but normally folks keep the "alternate" carrier in a different alliance, not in the same one. I'd suggest finding a OW or ST carrier to be your alternate carrier rather than CO.
