If I want to status match from delta silver to CO, would I open a ff account with CO first? Or do I send them all the info and thy will open the acct for me? For CO, is it better to fax or email for status match?

If I am just getting delta's silver status will CO give me a problem matching status? I will get silver status through the Amex mr deal going on right now. I don't have a history with delta.

Hi!

I am currently BD Gold.

Is there any *Alliance Carrier or oneworld which will match my Status?

I wrote CO but they said that the wonīt match *Alliance partners.

Malev will, if you take one flight before end of November.

True, but MA are OW, not *A. Chrisi1321 would need to match to MA, then back to CO or similar.

What about LAN?

I wrote them, and got quick answer that I should send them my recent BD activities plus " it must appear the elite status achieved during that period."

I also matched to BD thats why I hardly have any on the account.

Is it still worth a try to send them my gold card and my statement with ridiculous 2000 miles?

Thanks

Thanks for putting this together. This is great. I will check back next year when I need to do my status match.

He did mention OW in his question though :)

US Airways

US Airways is offering a 90-day Silver status trial for those that have a non-refundable ticket booked on US Airways. Otherwise there are no reports of them status matching as of now.


Is this the case right now? I thought US used to match???

No.

They would match you to Premium Silver from BD Gold, but want to see a lot of activity and milage achieved on there within the last 6 months.

Chrisi1321 Nov 9, 2010 12:07 pm

hmm....

VS Gold during that "promotion" wonīt help anything too, right?

Major issue is that I would need lounge access on oneworld.
As I am from Austria Malev isnīt really a option too, because they donīt fly to VIE.

So if I get delta silver status by transferring Amex MR points, CO wouldn't match?

Will try be able to see where the skymiles are from?

I'm only planning to transfer my Amex MR to get silver status and match at CO. Please let me know if you think this will not work.

They used to. Last year when my brother moved from Michigan to Maryland he tried to match AA Gold to US Silver and they wouldn't match it. I reported it somewhere upthread...

Air NZ will. Air NZ matched my United status. Send a message on their website through the Air NZ customer help form and they'll get in touch with you.
