Update: It’s now October 1st, so matching should get you status until the end of 2019.
Previously Alaska airlines has offered to match status with other airlines, but it required sending an e-mail. They now have a formal website that can be found at:Â https://www.alaskaairstatusmatch.com/. To receive a match you need to select the airline you have status with and then send proof of that status (e.g a screenshot of your account page). You can only get your status matched to Alaska once, so make sure you want to use your chance up now before submitting the documents.
According to a post by OMaaT last year if you request a match before the end of September 30th, 2018 then you will receive the status match until December 31st, 2018. Whereas if you wait until October 1st to request a status match then you will receive matched status until December 31st, 2019. Because of that I would wait a few weeks until October 1st before requesting a match. As always if you want to know what status you are likely to receive, I’d recommend using Status Matcher.
