Club Carlson Elite Status match
Important to note that the Club Carlson Budget car rental offer states it is for Club Carlson elite members. Elite membership in any other hotel loyalty program should be acceptable for an elite status match with Club Carlson to at least the Silver level.
Here is the response Angelina of Just Another Points Traveler blog received when she requested a status match from Club Carlson a few months ago.
Club Carlson:
“We would like to offer to match elite status that you have, with either
Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott, Priority Club, and Starwood only. We can match
top level to Gold Elite and second level to Silver Elite. Our newest
Concierge Elite level cannot be matched, it must be earned.“
Reports I have seen indicate Priority Club Platinum will be matched to Club Carlson Gold. That is a great deal to take advantage of compared to getting only Silver elite for Marriott Rewards Gold or Hilton HHonors Gold. Some members report getting Club Carlson Gold with a match from HHonors Gold, but others report only being matched to Club Carlson Silver elite. Either way, Club Carlson Silver or Gold elite level online booking for hotel stays earns 2,000 bonus points.
