How does UA and CO compare in status match?

If a DL GM wanted to get a match, would it be better to try to match on CO before or after UA takes over?

Actually contemplating an SFO-HKG trip in November and CO seems to have a pretty good option.

Matching terms are the same.

I would match to CO, since the program is going away and you only get one match every 5 years.

Oneworld Status Match
 
Are there any OneWorld partners currently offering status matching?

I am M&M Senator, Flying Blue Platinum and UK based.

Malev? They had an offer when you'd get matched after taking one flight.

Can I match co plt to dl plt if I currently hold status with delta as a silver?
I have never matched to delta but if this is my last chance at.matching before they go to challenges it might not be a bad IDEA IF PERMISSIBLE. I didn't mean for thY to be in caps.

I thought they were still matching to co/ua via that amex link through 12/31.

Thanks for the oneworld info.

On a separate match question - does Virgin's Flying Club also status match or have a fast track 'challenge' ?

Is CO still matching? Delta just announced the most customer unfriendly change to its Skymiles program and I am seriously looking at CO/UA. I am Delta Diamond, so what would be the matched tier at CO?
