They do, but usually ask for much more that just a past flight, including detailed statements and future bookings on CX.

My application was just ignored by ANA. They didn't even bother to send an e-mail with rejection.

I am based in Amsterdam and KLM has already refused my request.

You can try Delta, they do a challenge with status upfront for 3 months. Or trade on CC for a Delta Silver or Gold status card valid for the rest of the year.

Lot of confirmed Finnair matching roughly 2 years ago after AirBerlin went bust, does anybody have more recent data points?

Going from *A Silver (LH-branded if that matters)

That's how it usually is if you match after July.
actually what happens if you match before July but complete the challenge after July, will it still be extended to 2021 i.e. is it based on date of completion or date of initial offer?

That's surprising to hear. DL is usually very generous in who they match, as long as it's not ST.
Did they specifically mention they don't match AY?
I was initially denied because they didn't like my digital card as proof. When I sent in my physical one I was approved. (matching from OZ)

Thank you for writing in requesting a status match with Delta Air Lines. While we appreciate your interest in our Medallion program, we do not match Finnair Airlines or any of our SkyMiles partners.

We appreciate your business and trust your future flights will be enjoyable. We hope you will continue to make Delta your airline of choice.

Regards,



SkyMiles Service Center

Huh, that's too bad. Not sure why AY isn't matched, it's a direct competitor of KLM which a DL flyer would use.

The wording suggests that the one who wrote that thinks that AY is a SkyMiles partner. Maybe that's why you weren't matched.

Yeah I would just try again.

Aerolinas Argentinas: applied within time limit and no response for several MONTHS, when following up today received feedback that status match was only valid for Argentina residents, this was not mentioned anywhere.

How did you manage to follow up? Their email address seems to be offline and through social media I don’t get a response.

Stupid excuses like China Southern before. Another example of how Skyteam sucks.

If I'm LH HON Circle, with substantial interncontinental travel in F, what other major programs do you think I can try matching with? I'm looking at Flying Blue and BA Executive Club in particular, but am open to others.

I don't want a basic match, but I'm open to a challenge. And I avoid US carriers.
