How can I get a golden status by Latam, I am Lufthansa Senator
If you want to turn your Lufthansa Senator tier into a LATAM Gold tier, the only way LATAM has offered in the past was through its status‑match program, but that promotion closed on January 1 2024 — so a new match isn’t currently available.
What the past LATAM match required (for reference):
- Submit an application and pay the fee (USD $199 for most countries, $98 for residents of Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, or $80 for residents of the USA, Canada, Australia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru) Frequent Flyer Bonuses
- Provide proof of your elite credentials; LATAM would grant you the highest tier you qualify for based on the airline you’re matching from Frequent Flyer Bonuses
- Applications were processed within about three days, and the granted status was valid through March 31 2025 Frequent Flyer Bonuses
How LATAM mapped Lufthansa tiers in the match table:
- Lufthansa Frequent Traveller → LATAM Gold Plus
- Lufthansa Senator → LATAM Platinum (a tier above Gold)
- Lufthansa HON Circle → LATAM Black Signature Frequent Flyer Bonuses
Because a Senator matched to LATAM Platinum, you would have received a tier higher than Gold if you had applied before the deadline. Since the match window has already closed, there’s no current LATAM‑specific route to obtain Gold status directly from your Lufthansa Senator tier. You would need to earn LATAM Gold by flying LATAM or its partners, or wait for a future status‑match promotion that LATAM might announce.
