Details Flying Blue Status Match

Wer? airberlin Topbonus / Etihad Guest Silver, Gold, Platinum
Wie? Email an [email protected]
Was noch? Statusnachweis (Foto, Kopie oder Scan deiner Statuskarte) oder Screenshot Kontoauszug, Buchungsbestätigung eines Air France/ KLM Fluges

It says that Silver, Gold and Plat from EY or AB are eligible.

Send email to [email protected] with proof of status, either photo, copy or scan of your status or screenshot of your account.

Also proof of one booking with AF/KLM

So this seems more like a challenge.

Probably not as AF had a status match back in 2010 (IIRC) and has never matched again.

Yeah not very common, but I can see them wanting to get some AB customers away from LH

let's see what happens. I would not mind a FB match or a LH one

I'm curious to hear how they matched you. Because by all previous accounts they point black haven't matched any status, whether low or high.

As am I as I requested a match to my AA EXP months ago and have never heard a word from them and nothing as far as status upgrade in my acct. It would have been nice to have on this trip, though it's a P fare on OS, so didn't need for the usual bene's-lounge, checkin, priority boarding, etc- though the extra miles would have been nice. Please do share your details, especially where you contacted them, as I did the email online for the US site.
