In my request, I noted that I was concerned with the CO/UA merger and would like to return to Sky Team...not exactly true, but I'm hoping this works as I have to travel on some DL TPACs in Y later this year...will stick with *Alliance for the long-term. Am a little worried though as I only have 16k EQM this year on CO...I'll still hit plat with end of year travel, but am wondering how this will influence DL's decision.

Anyone else tried this approach? If so, what was the lag between the request and when you heard back?

I submitted a match request to DL on Tuesday morning (~9:30am EDT). Still no word either way.

Just signed into my DL account and looks like everything went through...shows me as Plat Medallion. Anyone know how to determine if this is valid till 2011 or 2012??

Wow, congrats. Still nothing for me. Which number did you fax your info to?

Update: I just called the SkyMiles customer service center and asked about my match. They said they've received it and are still reviewing it, and will likely get back to me by Monday. They're not able to connect me directly to anyone in that department, though. Here's hoping...

I'm still waiting for processing right now.

Thanks, keep me posted.

My husband sent in his first fax, and apparently it was lost. So make sure they havent' displaced anything.

Match to Star Alliance
 
I have a Flying Blue Gold Status (matched from LH FTL).

Do you know of any programs to which I can request a status match for Star Alliance Gold Status?

If so, how do I got about applying (considering I still have 0 flights on FB).

Thank you

I guess u mean status match for Sky Team Gold Status instead of *alliance ??

fmpacheco Aug 4, 2010 6:48 am

No, I mean I have Flying Blue Gold (which I originally matched from LH FTL) and I want to re-match to Star Alliance to get Gold.

You can go with BMI which will be soon integrated into M&M.

Does UA match CO gold? If UA asks me to do a challenge, what are the challenge terms?

If I receive UA 1p after the challenge in September, how long will the status expire? Thanks!

Hopefully they will get you through the process quickly, some very positive turnarounds so far.

Southwest A-List Status Match
 
I am MVP Gold on Alaska. I live in San Diego and travel to Portland every week. Now I am transferring to Phoenix and will be flying on Southwest. Does anybody know if Southwest will status match me the A-List if I am an Alaska Gold member. Obviously there is no first class, etc... but not having to stand in the security line in San Diego or Phoenix is a big deal when you travel each week.

With bmi it could be a good thing to purchase a cheap ticket and mention the Booking Code when requesting the Match.
You will need a screenshot of your Account and perhaps a scanned copy of the gold card.

With Continental you definitly need the Gold Card and a scanned copy of your gold card, but then you should be fine.
