What's the best play with Etihad Gold expiring 03/2016?
I have no activity on EY (was a match from UA 1K a couple years back) but since I'm losing my AA Gold at the end of the year and will only have UA Silver (thanks to Marriott Plat), I figure it's about that time to see if I can parlay the Etihad Gold into something useful in *A or OW (have a trip to Europe planned next year with OW over the pond but *A intra-Europe so either or both would be beneficial). I did find the physical cards today when cleaning up my room so if the match simply requires the status card I should be all set. |
Emailed TK for a status match to my BA GGL/CCR card (hoping for a match to Elite Plus but happy with anything I could get). They replied stating that my card expired 09/15 and therefore couldn't match me. I sent them a copy of my online BAEC card (having just renewed I haven't had my new physical card yet) and I am now TK Elite for two full years. ^

If you have a german etc address then yes. Tk will match exp with statement and then ab should match providing you have an address in DE on file...

It needs to be a RJ paid flight. This is what they sent me when I requested a match:
This may be true, but AA requires payment to be enrolled in their challenges - I think $140 for the gold challenge, and $250 for the Platinum. |
Does anybody know if it is possible to match Freccia Alata from Alitalia to Air Canada, United, or American Airlines? Seems like most reports I see are people matching to Alitalia and not the other way around.

You can try get Turkish, following these instructions. Send a copy of your Etihad gold card. They require proof of flight activity, so you can send them your flight activity with a AA or UA, and they might give it to you. Often people receive reply from Turkish that they only match *A Gold, OWE, and ST E+, but there have been reports of Etihad Gold getting matched.

United will offer a challenge with the difference being you get immediate benefits of the status; however you're required to fly at least 12,500 miles within a 90 day period to retain the status for the balance of the year American might offer a challenge, but you've got to pay a fee to begin the challenge and i'm sure all of the details are on the AAdvantage sub forum |
What is the best strategy with expiring AB Gold 2/17 and AS mvpG75k 12/16. Alitalia then turkish? I saw that copa is matching, but I didn't see any reports of OWS to *A Gold, if that would work I would do that, but I don't want to get stuck with *A silver as that would be of 0 use to me.

Hello
I am in need for advice from people who have experience in status matching. Now i have the following status: 1. Jet airways platinum (highest tier and part of Etihad alliance) till sept 2016: got by flying the required segments and will hopefully qualify again in sept 2016. 2. Air india gold (*A gold) till may 2016: got through credit card and hopefully will qualify again in may 2016. However, i am crediting all *A flights to UA MP. 3. Etihad gold till march 2017: got through credit card and will not qualify again. Not crediting any flights to this. 4. Qantas gold till march 2016: through status match but not crefiting flights to qantas. I am crediying my flights to jet airways, UA and a EK return business class DEL-DXB-JNB earlier this year to AS. I believe jet, ai and etihad status are not good for sttus match to any program that could be used for future status matches. Hence want to match my QF gold to something that can be used for future matches in any allince, specially OW or ST. Any suggestions / advise please? |
For those who have got a match with TK using Aegean Gold, did Turkish ask you for the statement from Aegean showing the transactions for the last two months? If yes, how did you get the statement. I sent the one that I printed from my Aegean online account, but it was rejected by Turkish because the statement did not have my name and Aegean account number on it by default? Thus, how do I get a statement from Aegean with my name, account number and transactions? Thanks.

Just got matched from Delta Gold Medallion to Copa's ConnectMiles Gold. Sent in to accounts [at] connectmiles.com just under two hours ago! Have been waiting ages for TK's match, thought I'd try Copa today. Very impressed with the speed!

Just hit A-list preferred on Southwest along with companion pass . What's the best to cash in on this status ? I know Alaska matches the SW status which I will try after Oct 1st .
Any other airlines which will match the status other than Alaska ? Any pointers is much appreciated. |
