Any information on whether KLM will match UA?
 

Will be doing a lot of intra Europe travel in addition to the Europe / US, where I normally fly *alliance. I am a 1k on UA but end up flying a fair amount on KLM.

Air France - KLM do not (generally) match statuses. You could always try get a status match on Northwest then changing your address to Europe which will move your worldperks miles and status over to flying blue.

Is there any airline that would match my AA platinum status ? European Airline ?

bmi

Do you mean will they give you a status match and put 1,000,000 miles in your new account?

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

NO - just match my status and then i'll build my own miles up !!


Hmm BMI now that would be handy - GVA ^


GVA would i just email BMI asking them about a staus match ?



jj....

Can someone please post for me the fax numbers of us airways and united to get a status match.

Thanks

Best time for getting a status match?
 

When is actually the best time to get a status match ?

Let's assume one gets matched now: Is this only for the running year or also for the following?

If I have UA 1k and want status match on
 

KLM, I call Northwest and get a match then change my address to europe and it will convert into a KLM account? If not if I got status match on Northwest could I use it to get into the lounges for KLM if I was having the miles credited to KLM? I guess it does not matter either way, but just trying to think it through.

Just got UA Status Matched
 

Thanks for the thread! I faxed my letter to UA, along with my US Airways statement, and got elite status!

Yes just send an email to the diamond club email. They'll tell you what to do afterwards.

If they comp you to Gold and you get it transferred to flying blue then yes. If it stays as WP then no.

If they comp you to Platinum then both WP and FB will give you lounge access.

Beware though that FB gold and platinum give you lounge access on NW even if flying domestic which is not the case with a straight WP gold card.

how to arrange matches
 

I would like similar information about American. What is the best way to reach them to ask for a status match?

Quick question for anybody who has done a recent status match to United, how long does it take if you faxed your statements? And did you get any confirmation that UA had received your fax?

In January it took 3 weeks with no acknowledgment of fax receipt. I ended up calling.
