Status match - the 90 day timline

I status matched southwest and received the confirmation in email on 3/22. I suppose the 90 day should end on 6/20. However from my account the current temporary A-list status is expiring on 6/30.
Does any know if the 90 day is a sharp one counting from 3/22, or it is just a relaxed one through the end of month at 6/30?

You'll probably get the benefits through 6/30, but the qualification period ends on the date that your letter states. I would not risk not completing the required flights by that date...

From my experience, it is through the end of the month where the 90th day lands. Keep in mind, only flights booked AFTER you receive that e-mail qualify. I learned this the hard way and had to book two additional RTs to qualify.

Those dates are usually just to cover themselves. In my experience things usually happen faster. Since you only have 2 week to go I'd contact them either by phone or through Twitter.

To clarify if you qualify somewhere in the 90 days, does the 12 month extension of A List extend from
- the day you qualify (final 6th flight) or
- from the end of the 90 day qualification period?

​​​​And wasn't there another thread talking about 3RTs vs 6 one ways has to be one or the other?

Yes. They won't let you do 2 round trips and 2 one ways. So dumb.

Is Southwest still offering status match? Curious since the status match says, "Enrollment in the Southwest Status Match promotion must take place before December 31, 2023"...

I requested a match after the 1st of the year, and it was granted.
