A status match with CO can be tricky depending on the agent handling your status match request. I know of those who got matched with a copy of their card alone, while another got asked for copies of statements as well. Both were very recent status match requests.

I am planning to apply to CO for a status match. My statements will obviously show a limited amount of flying. What is the best way for me to word my request so that they will hopefully match me to CO plantinum? I am aware that some FT members have mentioned they have only received a silver match from CO for their AA platinum.
Should I wait a couple of weeks till I complete another round of flights (RDU-JFK-SFO-JFK-RDU) and wait till it shows up on my account? Does it help to mention in the letter that I am planning on transferring the bulk of my flying to CO since their Newark hub is much more convenient? Any and all advice accepted. |
DL GM here, looking at *A or OW.
How do the AA and UA challenges work? You have to tally 25k or 50k within a 90-day period? |

DL Gold to UA Premier Executive is no problem at all, there will be a challenge to fly 15000 miles within 90 days, though. I friend of mine submitted his request as of today and got a positive reply within hours.
So do you request status match before or after you book a UA flight? How do they track your flight activity during the challenge period? Is there some account number you get? Or do you just get a MP account and then they track activity on that account? |

Hi,
Browsing through the thread I see that there was a promotion for Flying Blue to status match UK residents. Does anyone know the current status if there is an ongoing programme to match status for non UK residents? Thanks, Jes |

Well I used the Flying Blue status match for UK residents being non-resident. Used London address to register and than change it after the match.

And what company did you tell them you were working for :D ?
Match was done in 7 days. |
Shame I missed out on this one, interesting it wasnt such a big discussion, i think it was a great offer.
Anyone think there is still a point of applying for it or no chance as the offer ended July 31? |
I noticed the other day that the Malev status match offer has been extended to 31st August 2010 (originally 30 June 2010). Fly one one sector on Malev, match to status of any airline.
(At least that's what their website says, although I don't know of anyone who was successful in getting matched to Duna Club Platinum (OW Emerald) - I wasn't. |
So AF offers status matches only to people with UK addresses?
Do they offer match for DL SM members? Do they have better low-miles award availability than DL? |

Don't bother, I just got a reject from them based on it being not valid after July 31st :(
