I think so, but only in business class. Last time I booked a Turkish J roundtrip award using United MileagePlus miles, I was given a BMW transfer at Ataturk from a tight connection, and weeks after the trip I received a letter from Turkish Airlines thanking me for all the revenue and business I was giving them, along with a bottle of Monopole.

Ok thanks for informing. Do you know when they suspended the match?
|
Meanwhile I already asked for a status challenge from AA Plat to UA Gold. Just booked a UA ticket to fly at least 12,5K miles. I think this is the best way to get Star Alliance Gold status as soon as possible.
|
I am currently 1K with UA, looking to do a status match with DL. Any advice or recommendations? I've been 1K with UA for 7 years but living in Atlanta makes it hard...

Anyone know if any airlines are matching status off of VX?

Numerous reports on statusmatcher.com state TK denying even a challenge.
Turkish were always declaring that they do not match those. |
it seems that this year the status matches are scarce, aftr looking at statusmatcher.com
for 2016 I have gold for Alitalia , gold on topbonus AirBerlin and gold with amigo.avianca brazil But I got stuck on a job and never used them , but the future 2017 looks bright so I need to match some of these for the next year , Any ideas ? All I really care about is the extra baggage , maybe priority boarding , I am normally in the cheap seats so I will not get upgraded to business anyway, on a normal year I fly International 4-5 times a year , this year was just not normal ! So I have nothing on these cards if they want "screen shots" of 2016 activity Thanks for your ideas |
EP with AA till Feb 2018. Should I status match with AS now or wait until my EP status with AA expires? Do airlines agree to status match at the end of status period with another airline?
|
I'm currently American Platinum (through flying) and Avianca Amigo Gold (via a status match last year).
I've had the Alaska match before, and I assume that's once per lifetime? (Correct me if I'm wrong!). I've also had Turkish and Air Berlin via matches. Do I have any options? I'm particularly interested in maximizing lounge access. Less concerned about the other perks. |

I have AA EXP out of DFW. Will VX match me gold again if I did it last year?
|
Anyone have any ideas on leveraging my Avianca Lifemiles Gold status for a match? It will expire Feb 2017 :(. I'm based in Canada, so Star Alliance is best (Air Canada). Thanks!

I got HHonors Silver this past year (kinda sad, I know). Anything out there worth matching with it? I have emailed HHonors to ask for a Gold challenge based on my recent activity with them.
|
I don't think the first tier of any hotel program is worth the bother to match. It really doesn't get you much.
|
Is anyone matching Berlin Air status?

Who will match United Airlines MileagePlus Gold
My MileagePlus Gold status will expire on January 31st, 2017.
As there are low chances my future flights will include UA flights, does anyone have any suggestion which airlines will status match me? (preferably not US-based, unless they will not ask for a leg with them) I'm mostly interested in lounge access. Thanks in advance! |
You may ask for quite easy challenge on TK, or try match to COPA (not sure if it works).
|
Thanks for the reply.
TK don't match Star Alliance any more (i did try it, though, and indeed got refused). I'll check COPA. Any additional options? |
Ladies and Gents, I am Gold with Cathay Pacific's MPC, is there any status match that you would suggest with good choice of flights to Japan (where I usually travel to).
Thanks. |

Thanks. Otherwise you're kinda hosed. |
Status Match Into OW
I'm currently AA Plat & AlItalia 'Freccia Alata Club'.
I will loose both at the end of the year. Is there any status match I could do into any of the airlines in OW to retain my status? I know LAN is matching status of AA but I haven't done any flights with them last year. I do have 2 upcoming flights first half of 2017 enough to reach AA Gold or probably rather BA Bronze after the changes to AA's program. A status match to BA would be great but I don't think BA ever matches or even offers a challenge according to what I find online. Buying back AA status is an option but quite expensive... |
DL Diamond to Emirates
am flying to India frequently in 2017. Hate AF angled flat and hate KLM entirely.
am 1mm with United and Gold forever, so can't be matched to a higher status there. Thinking about Emirates. statusmatcher.com post said they don't match above silver levels. Even for a diamond (180,000 flight miles in 2016 on DL) |
I have WestJet Gold, because I'm cheap and only fly out of Canada. Any chance I can status match to a more well known airline?
|

Is there any SkyTeam carrier that would offer a match or a challenge for A3*G? I've been holding the status for years, and I'm able to present significant activity at the account.
Any suggestions appreciated. |
My Turkish Star Gold is expiring soon. Am I correct in thinking that I'm out of luck for any matches atm?
