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 wont match *Alliance partners.

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.

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.

hmm....
VS Gold during that "promotion" wont help anything too, right?
Major issue is that I would need lounge access on oneworld.
As I am from Austria Malev isnt really a option too, because they dont 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.

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.
