Status Match from A3
Hey all!
I was lucky enough to make the cut before Aegean changed their program in November, so now I'm a proud owner of a Gold Card with A3. I'm now looking into Status matching, and my first attempt will be with Topbonus from Air Berlin, to get me into Oneworld. Should I try another one instead? I'm European and don't really travel in the US so I'm not sure it will work with an American Airline. But my problem is Skyteam, as I can't seem to find a company that would give me a match. Any ideas/success stories? As I said I'm Gold with A3 and travel very frequently but mostly in Europe. Thanks! |

TK to Air Berlin match
Requested a match from TK Elite, and received a Top Bonus Gold in less than a day.
Fantastic customer service. Have a few Oneworld flights coming up where I can use the elite access |

DL tweeted me back yesterday that the requests would be processed in the order they are received and that they have a huge backlog... |
Unfortunately the Twitter shortcut doesn't seem to work anymore. DL tweeted me back yesterday that the requests would be processed in the order they are received and that they have a huge backlog... But no SkyTeam benefits, right? |

Sorry to hear that... I suggest you try again if it hasn't been processed yet in a week or so. First time I messaged them, they said the same. Second time, they got it done in less than 2 minutes. Make sure to include your SkyMiles number, of course.

Wrong thread...sorry

I applied for a Gulf Air status match around 3.5 weeks ago but have had nothing back and status is still blue. Has anyone waited longer than this?

First emailed 31 Mar, followed up 14 Apr. Didn't get a response to either email and I'm still Gulf Air Blue. I guess they don't want my business.
