Timing of CO status match

If I match to CO Plat (from AA EXP or DL Diamond) today, when would the status expire -- Feb 2011 or Feb 2012? If the answer is Feb 2011, how late in 2010 do I need to wait before requesting a match that would last until Feb 2012?

DL and UA do fly to TPE via NRT.
DL and UA do not fly to TPE via HKG unless you connect to other carriers.

I just put in for a CO status match from AA EXP as I guess the "once in a lifetime" opportunity on CO will be gone after the merger. Will let you know how long they go for

I did the same thing. I matched CO gold from AA Plat. Request sent via email last Saturday and got Gold status today, about 4 biz days.

We look forward to having you fly with us."
What email address did you use?

And if you followed up with AC, what snail mail address?

Thanks.

Just to report back: DL matched my status to Medallion Gold (requiring only copy of BR card), and CO also offered match to OnePass gold (requiring copy of BR card and BR travel activity). UA offered a 90-day challenge.

Thanks everyone for the help

My Medallion Gold is valid through Feb 2011 (they said because Medallion is based on calendar year). Not sure if this is what you are asking for.

Yes. So DL is just like UA. Our matched status only last until the end of the current year (+ 1 or 2 months.)

Anybody has info on CO's policy?
