They don't officially do a status match, but I was able to find the email of somebody in the EarlyReturns department online somewhere (I think it was on elliott.org, but can't find it now) to email about a status match. I was told that they do not do a status match but they would offer complimentary Elite status through the end of the year to experience their status.
I was actually pleasantly surprised by Frontier as with Elite status, its really not that different from any other airline. You get complimentary upgrades to stretch seating, free carry-on, priority boarding. If they flew to my home airport I wouldn't hesitate to fly them. I also noticed they aren't as trigger happy with the seatbelt light as other airlines, which is a pleasant change.
