Qatar partnership with Accor + status fast-track

I believe the quota is usually reached fairly early on but you might as well try your arm. yes I think it would have to be QR marketed and metal.

You are correct. QR marketed, on QR metal and obviously credited to your Privilege Club account.
Think for memory a day or so after the flight I was elevated to QR Platinum. I’ve managed to maintain Platinum but it’s not as easy to do as other programs unfortunately

Thinking about doing this match in November, assuming the amount of matched statuses doesn't exceed the quota. You just have to link your Accor and QR accounts and then as long as you credit a QR marketed/operated flight, you're sweet?

I fly KUL-DOH-ZRH in November (first leg on MH), so I assume its the 2nd flight that actually matters for this match?

I linked accor with Qatar and travelled on 29th June. Soon I landed in Doha, I received an email that my Qatar membership has been upgraded to Gold and I could use this gold status for my next connecting flight.

Thanks all, appreciate the data points. Won't be useful for the first two sectors (I doubt I can use my QF Plat to burst into the lounges with a QR number on my BP) but its a short layover and I have LoungeKey access anyway so I'll suffer just fine
