About 2-3 business days, actually my online Medallion Status was updated prior to getting enrollment email.

I tried to get status match to BA with my Aegean Star Alliance Gold, but they replied "sorry we dont status match because this wouldn't be fair to all those who earned it."
I asked ElAl for gold status match, but they said they dont match with Aegean. They said they would match to Turkish and others.
Air Berlin would match Aegean Gold to Air Berlin Silver (which is not much with One World) for a five month period and i need at least one flight with them within the next six weeks.
Cathay Pacific wouldnt match but gave me free enrollment as a green member (lowest level) instead of the usual $50 enrollment fee.
Turkish Airlines have still not responded to my match request after 6 weeks waiting.
China Airlines would consider matching when i purchase one flight with them.
KLM and Air France wouldnt match, but every once in a while they do have a status matching campaign.
Lufthansa wouldnt match.
SAS wouldnt match with Aegean.
American Airlines would match me for a fee plus a challenge.
Hilton Honors (hotel) would match me to gold by staying with them 10 nights or 5 stays instead of the usual 20 nights or 10 stays needed to achieve gold.

I just called AA yesterday trying to match Delta status and they said the only current match they are offering (other than the published challenges) is for United 1K. It didn't apply to me, so I didn't ask, but I would assume that it's a match to Executive Platinum.

I'm curious about matching A3 *G to an equivalent in AviancaLifeMiles. Due to my current geographic position it may be a good thing to do. Also have heard that LM Avianca program is top notch.

I am DL Diamond and I need to fly more US Flights - I am wondering what my match/challenge options are? Can I match to US or AA? Would it matter if I could only match to AA and then fly US most of the time? Thanks!

To be fair, Aegean has pretty lax requirements and it definitely wouldn't be fair to other people who earned their status the hard way.

LOL :D :p

i believe its $2100 to buy it ;)

anyone tried using China Airlines card for lounge access but crediting miles to Flying Blue?

I think most knowledgeable airline people wouldn't give much weight to an Aegean "frequent flyer". Many programs, like Alaska, exclude status matches to them specifically. They'll match other programs with real thresholds though.

I consider myself a knowledgeable airline person, and I believe Aegean Miles & Bonus is the BEST star alliance program.
I have matched TK Elite, Etihad gold and China Airlines Emerald (Skyteam) with my Aegean M&B card.
All together, I am very happy about it and give my business to Aegean whenever appropriate.

I'd like to know what Aegean gets in return when someone credits their flights to the program. The only good thing about A3's program is getting lounge access when flying with *A carriers, especially domestic US fliers. Nothing amazing about being able to status match to TK's, EY's, or CI's frequent flier program unless I've been missing out on some worthwhile benefits.

Aegean gold is relatively easy to get (20000 miles), very easy to keep (one flight over 3 years).

ci emerald
 

handy of course for Skyteam lounges. But on the carrier its best benefits lounge access to first class lounges in few Asian locations especially Taipei itself. Lounges i think are better than US standards.But probably a good 1 rank lower than the best in asia.

Hi there,

I am TK Miles and Smiles Elite Plus member, and in December I will be flying with Malasia Airlines couple of times ( 5 return tickets within Asia ) so I want to use lounge of MH.

But I have no one world status at all, My question is , which One World airlines program match is easiest to get a lounge access for my Elite Plus card status?
