Royal Jordanian oneworld status match

[Mattg]

Royal Jordanian is offering a Royal Plus status match for members of other oneworld airlines. You need to currently have Gold/oneworld sapphire or Platinum/emerald status with another oneworld airline to be eligible.

Clearly this is targeted at Airberlin flyers whose status will become worthless next week, but the RJ website says that Gold/platinum members of any oneworld airline are eligible.

You also need to have a current booking with Royal Jordanian, and the status is only activated after taking this flight. Obviously this makes it a little hard given RJ is based in Amman, but they do have tag flights from Bangkok to KUL & HKG.

Here are the terms & conditions from the Royal Jordanian website:

Royal Jordanian Airlines Status Match - Royal Jordanian
