A British driver's license or British passport is required to apply for level parity. While in the second case the chances for Italians are not very high, it is possible that among the many Italian residents in London and the rest of Her Majesty's Island, there are potentially many interested parties holding a UK-issued driver's license.
What to do to apply for Flying Blue match status
Just go to the dedicated site in the Statusmatch.com portal and fill out the form required information includes name/surname and the card held. Depending on the level you plan to apply for there will be a cost to apply:
- Silver: €79
- Gold: €199
- Platinum: €399
Invest €400 to get the Platinum level, the highest level of the loyalty program under the "new" Ultimate, might seem disproportionate, but this is not the case at all since the renewal is much less strenuous than it seems and thanks to the soft landing you would also be guaranteed 12 months of Gold user.
Also Platinum status is the one that opens to the possibility of book, with points, La Premiere and gives many benefits on all flights of the French/Dutch company.
