Status Matcher
Hello,
This may be an obvious question, but it is regarding matching a status from Aegean Airlines.
I am currently a gold member for Aegean which expires in January 2016 and cannot see myself getting enough miles to retain this membership.
Is there a way I can extend this perhaps by matching this status to another star alliance member (or any other airline, ie Emirates, Cathay Pacific) thus extending it, even without booking a flight?
Thanks,

What I meant was for retaining your Star Alliance Gold status (with another airline).
If you mean extending the expiry date of your Aegean Gold membership or retaining it, then no. You would need to re-qualify Aegean Gold status by flying whatever requirements it entails.

Also do the miles get carried over or would they just match the status?

Your miles would still be in Aegean (you can't move miles between airlines).

Best website for you, with reports from people who tried: http://statusmatcher.com/company/aegean-airlines
Look near the bottom, where it shows "Reports for leveraging status with Aegean Airlines Miles and Bonus".
