Called USAirways to see if they would match my Premiere status on UA. She told me that they discontinued matching as of 1/1.
Is this confirmed and anyone know of any "workarounds" so I can get USAirways to match my UA status?

This is a good question and one that prob could deserve it's own thread as there surely is a strategy to this based on historical events, I bet.

Changes to United Match
United will now match up to the highest tier.
You have to fly 15,000 miles or ten segments in the 90 days, in order to keep the ststauys match. You get the first 3 months status match as a grace period with all member benefits.
If you don't get the 15,000, though you get nothing. No middle levels.
Fax has changedas well - 605.343.4104

Well I just got a premier executive match that requires 15k miles or 18 segments in 90 days to keep it until February 2009.To get it for all of 2009 I must earn 50k or 60 segments. These can be star alliance but the initial 15k must be on United metal.
So, I am going to have to book some trips ASAP.
