Trying to maintain Marriott gold by achieving UA status matching my Avianca SA Gold. Any suggestions or prior knowledge?

You could try matching from Le Club Accor Platinum.

what do they give for AA ExPL ?

what is the best match for AA ExPL members, what program seems to offer the best for international travel?
I am already 1K UA but will not be in 2015.
Should I go with Agean, it lasts 3 years right?

TK Elite - Star Gold

They match pretty much any oneworld emerald status to TK Elite and I assume any Skyteam Elite Plus wouldn't be a problem. Heard that they were also matching other *G.

In theory easily forever, you need to credit one Star Alliance flight in 3 years to extend it by another 3 years :)

I have Etihad Guest Gold expiring March 2014. I've tried searching, but have had mixed results. Has anyone had positive results status matching Etihad Guest Gold to another airline?

TK last a year?



I am looking to jump ship from AA ExPlat, and UA 1K, so looking at best options.

I am EU/US based so Aegean is an option.

With SPG Plat I have never bothered but I have DL Gld correct?

Any other suggestions?

I did an AA match of UA in August. Is there a way to see if the AA status ends in 2014 or 2015?

If you did it in August, then unless AA recently changed its policies, your status lasts until Feb 2015.

I have TK Elite (Gold) from matching my no longer DL Plat. I have no miles with TK. Is there any airline that will match my TK Elite with only a copy of my card?

Trying to get TK GOLD
 
What email or online to match my BA gold to TK GOLD? My BA Gold will end in July 2014 and I will not retain the status. I want to do straight match with pretty much anyone without having to do a challenge or any extra $?
