Continental Airlines Onepass Elite Status Matching

Continental has a pretty generous secret status matching program, as they will actually match up to Platinum status – a rarity, as most programs will only match to mid-level status. That’s great news if you have top-level status elsewhere.

The bad news is that they will not match the status of other airlines in SkyTeam (specifically, Delta and Northwest). If you were hoping to switch from Delta to Continental, you’re out of luck.

If you can wait, it’s best to do the match after July 1^st, as your status will then last at least until two February’s after that date (ie, a July 1^st, 2009, status match will be good until February, 2011.

To get your status matched, send a letter explaining that you would like to shift your business to Continental and that you’d like them to match your current status. It will help to explain why you are switching, and giving a general idea of the amount (and class) of travel you typically fly. In addition, send a copy of your elite card, a copy of your elite statement, a copy of your OnePass card, and a copy of your OnePass statement to the OnePass Service Center:
