It would appear that they want us to fly 80,000 miles within a twelve month period to get the Elite Plus. Then again this is for residents of Turkey; the threshold is lower if you are a non resident. Should be a card upgrade calculator on your miles and smiles page.

I was matched today as well :) Took just a couple of hours actually!

How many miles do a Elite Card holder need to fly in order to obtain a Elite Plus Card?

The first answer I got within a day but was rejected. My new request has not been answered to in many days. I wonder what I am doing wrong.

Yeah, my card upgrade calculator says 80000 miles... :(

I was status matched to elite 2 days ago....from bmi Gold. Can anyone who was status matched recently tell me how long it takes the plastic to arrive....I have a TATL on UA in 6 weeks and need the extra baggage allowance?

It has taken up to 4 weeks for some of my cards to arrive. There used to be a facility to print a temporary card from the website... but that seems to have disappeared.

TK didn't know what matching means few months ago and now there are even matching other star alliance companies, that's great :D

Are they only matching to other *A partners or to OW as well? It is a chicken and egg for me. I don't have top tier *A status yet, and I find it difficult to allocate any flying to *A till I don't get status.

Success!
 
Thank you those that helped me. It took 3 tries but at last I got Elite-status and will now switch my loyalty from Skyteam to Star Alliance.

First try: You can not transfer Star Alliance status
Second try: No answer
Third try: Elite-card

Hey there,

A question, please: when you say statement from mileage plus, it means the miles that you accrued during the year?

Thanks

i sent then a statement for march 2012 where i had lots of domesti ps flights and 2 transpacifics

Relatively painless for me.

Sent them a BA and BD card scan plus a couple of screenshots of status showing a few recent flights, and I'm now in as Elite and therefore *G till May 2014.

Now need to change the profile and replace the BD Gold reference.
