In April, British Airways launched a status match offer for U.S. customers, causing significant concern among American Airlines executives. This promotion allowed participants to access American’s Flagship lounges when flying domestically.
With the impending acquisition of Scandinavian Airlines by Air France KLM and its subsequent departure from Star Alliance to join SkyTeam, a new status match opportunity has emerged. British Airways Silver and Gold members can now match their status to SAS EuroBonus Gold until August 30.
Starting September 1, SAS EuroBonus Gold will be recognized as SkyTeam Elite Plus, granting priority services from Delta Airlines. To qualify, applicants must list their SAS EuroBonus account address in one of the specified countries, excluding the U.S. Verification proof is not initially required but may be requested later. The matched status will last through March 31, 2025, with an extension available upon completing five paid SAS flights.
