Alitalia Status Match

[Kefci2000]

I never received an email either, just happened to be updated on the account after my 3rd email.

Does anyone know if they are sending out plastic cards? Because how can I otherwise use this status to match AB and TK?

On a side note: just tried to add my MilleMiglia number to an existing AF/KL booking but doesn't let me... Tried both AF and KL MMB pages, returns error as if the number doesn't match my name. Now have to call them up I guess.

Did you put in the full 10 digits?
I had the same problem with Hilton Honours, but it needed the 0000 in front to make the 10 digits

This is from my welcome email, so yes, a real plastic card is on it's way.

Matched to my airberlin gold.

I thought I tried that as well, but just tried it again (with 000... at the front) and it worked. Thanks!

a real plastic card is on it's way.

My piece of plastic turned up today. No luggage tag, only the card.

Unsure, I sent both through as my TK a had a later expiry date. assume they matched my QF WP as they only matched to the early date

Thanks for that Kefci, I figured they might do that if I sent both.

Congrats, feeling left out with my March 2106 expiry. First application with my Qantas Card expiry July 2015
didn't help by the looks of it.

Submitted another application when the first application wasn't processed after 2 weeks with the status matched Air Berlin Card expiry April 2016.

Now have a bonus 11 months, expiry March 2017 on my profile thanks to the Air Berlin status match.

 

[JessicaTam]

My profile has been updated to Freccia Alata Plus Club level.

Only until 2016 though.

A Late applicant here, waited until I got the Etihad Gold. Alitalia card issued, valid until March 2017 - Thanks all for the tips

Used the card yesterday for our Jakarta/Manado flight.
At check in Garuda agent wanted to charge us for 8kg excess baggage.
Clearly had an extra 20kg entitlement.
15 minutes waiting for an answer, finally got our boarding passes and the entitlement.
Priority Boarding was also used, did'nt try if we could access the Garuda Domestic Lounge.

Got my shiny black card in the mail today, quite impressed. Not sure I will ever use it but... ðŸ

 

[TheEmu]

No emails but a pretty shiny gold card arrived in the PO box yesterday.

 

[Fifa]

My +1 got his card in the mail yesterday.
I decided to hold off as only one of us need it at the moment. Maybe there will be another offer in a year or two .

What's the expiry?

 

[Pushka]

I had forgotten this. And received my card also.

 

[TheEmu]

What's the expiry?

03/16
July renewal for my QF year.

 

[JessicaTam]

Shiny black card arrived in the mail while I was away.

Freccia Alata Plus.

The card also came with an offer to upgrade a friend to Freccia Alata, as well as a card reminding me I can upgrade 4 flights booked in Y (Y, B, M, H fares).

Now I just have to fly AZ.

Ok..got a shiny gold card (FrecciaAlatia) and would like to benefit from it. Basically I want lounge access at Jakarta. My flight is GA836 to SIN, connecting onto QF82 to SYD and then a domestic QF flight. I had originally used my SG with QFF to select seats and request a business upgrade on QF flights (looks like a refurb). Logged into GA website, entered my AZ number on the booking. Booking then disappeared from my QF bookings page. Have I done the right thing? Or do I re enter my QF number (which usually gets a vacant seat next to me on GA) and just show my AZ FF card at check in at Jakarta to get lounge access?

Thanks

I got my status match email against VA Gold last night. Now to figure out how to use the Business upgrades on flights from BNe-NYC!

You can't for long haul, only premium economy. Business upgrade is short haul only. Does Alitalia fly out of Brisbane?

Interesting thing happened with Alitalia, asked for a status match with Enrich Gold, which they did with a Freccia Alata gold card.......the interesting thing is though that the expiry date on the card is 01/01/0001............does that mean it never expires??
