About your upgrade
How long will it take to receive my Elite status?
After your purchase, your status upgrade will begin processing within one business day. We'll send you an email confirmation when processing begins.
Your account will be upgraded within 3-5 business days of purchase.
How long will my Elite status be valid for?
Your status is valid for 2 years from the date on which it is processed on your account.
After 2 years, how can I renew my status?
To renew your Elite status, we'd love your business again.
Due to Turkish Airlines system limitations, we can’t apply this direct upgrade to the same Turkish Airlines account multiple times, so the renewal must be applied to a new Turkish Airlines account that we'll create for you. You'll simply maintain Elite status on a different Turkish Airlines account number.
Am I guaranteed to receive all the posted benefits on every
flight?
That depends! For perks that rely on space being available on the plane, like first class upgrades, you’ll receive the upgrade if complimentary upgrade seats are available to status-holders.
You’ll always receive other perks, like free checked bags and lounge access, as long as you hold status.
Is this a status match challenge?
This upgrade is not a status match, but grants the same promotional benefits as a status match on Turkish Airlines's systems. This means you may extend the duration of your status by meeting Turkish Airlines's public status match challenge requirements. For more information on this method to extend your status, please get in touch!
If I've already had a status match on my Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles account, am I eligible to purchase this upgrade?
Because this upgrade grants the same promotional benefits as a status match on Turkish Airlines's systems, if you have already had a status match, we're unable to apply this upgrade to your existing account.
However, we can automatically create a new Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles account for you, which we're able to upgrade. You'll simply receive Elite status on a different Turkish Airlines account number. For more information, please get in touch!
Do you need my password to process my status?
No. Your password is not required to process your Elite status.
Where does my status upgrade come from?
Please see our frequently asked questions page for more information.
What do I need to do to receive my status?
After submitting your account information, you're done! Your purchase includes a direct upgrade to Elite status on your Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles account.
Completing a minimum number of flight miles or segments, meeting a minimum spend, or meeting any other challenge to receive the upgrade is not required.
