Flying Blue Status Match Offer

According awardwallet which tracks my account it is due to expire end of this year.

I have 17,000miles in the account which I can't work out what to do with. The best I think I can get is an entry to the Paris Half-Marathon.. of course that creates an issue of actually getting to Paris...

I have just received an email from Flying Blue saying that I will remain Gold for 2014 (which I guess means Gold status until February 28, 2015). Not bad for a status match! 2 years of Gold status.

Have you done much flying with Air France/KLM or other SkyTeam member? I would love to get it extended.

1 flight on AF (for 69 euros). So no, not a lot of flying. But I enjoyed the priority services in CDG.

Do you mind posting some of the text and what area of FB it was from? Might ask for the same deal!

No such luck for me. Flew a couple of flight on CZ in PE. The gold card came in handy for priority boarding and lounge access.

The email was my FB statement:

If I login the Air France website it says that I am "invited Gold":

I just logged in and I am showing now as "Flying Blue Ivory", after successfully getting gold through the status match a year ago.
