For a limited time, StatusMatch.com is offering the opportunity to match your elite status to Royal Air Maroc’s Safar Flyer program.
While you may not think having Royal Air Maroc status would do you much good, remember that the airline is part of the Oneworld alliance, which means you could earn up to Emerald status within the alliance, entitling you to a number of valuable perks, including first class lounge access.
Let’s take a look at this promotion to see if it’s worth it.
Let’s take a quick look at the requirements of the Safar Flyer Status Match offered by Royal Air Maroc and StatusMatch.com.
In order to complete the status match, you must:
Depending on what airline or hotel status you currently have, you will be presented with an offer to pay to match the equivalent Safar Flyer status:
Applications may take up to 3 days to be approved. If the match is approved, your Safar Flyer status will be valid through December 31, 2026.
The promotion is limited and valid until December 31, 2025, or until the cap is met.
You can match your status to Royal Air Maroc from numerous airline programs, including:
You can also match from some hotel programs, but only to Silver status, which is likely not worth the cost.
There’s a big reason you’d want to match your status to Royal Air Maroc, even if you don’t fly with the airline at all. If you match to Royal Air Maroc Safar Flyer Gold, it will grant you Oneworld Sapphire status, which can be very valuable.
A standout benefit of Oneworld Sapphire is access to American Airlines Flagship Lounges (even on domestic flights), free checked bags, and priority boarding.
If you can match to Safar Flyer Platinum, that will unlock Oneworld Emerald status, which includes all of those benefits, plus access to first class lounges.
Here’s a look at the full slate of benefits for each tier of Oneworld status:
Oneworld Tier | Ruby | Sapphire | Emerald |
Earn/Redeem Miles on All Oneworld Member Airlines | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Earn Tier Points on All Oneworld Airlines | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Access to Business Class Priority Check-In | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

Those benefits could easily justify the application fee after just a few trips.
The process for applying for a Royal Air Maroc status match is straightforward. However, if you’re creating a Safar Flyer account for the first time, beware that the site can be glitchy.
First, visit SafarFlyerStatusMatch.com and enter your name, email, and Safar Flyer Membership number.
Then, you’ll be asked to select which airline you’d like to match from. From there, you’ll provide the status level you currently have as well as your frequent flyer number in that program.
Next, you’ll need to upload an unedited and uncropped photograph of your physical membership card or a photograph of your computer or tablet screen — not a screenshot.
After that, you’ll be presented with your potential new status level if your application is approved.
After paying the corresponding fee, you’ll receive your application number, which you can use to track your application progress online.
Hot Tip:If you have plans to fly Royal Air Maroc, this promotion includes a 30-day 3x Status Booster to help fast-track your requalification past 2026.
This is an excellent opportunity to leverage your status with another airline to get a status match with Royal Air Maroc.
If you match to Gold status, you’ll also earn Sapphire status with the Oneworld alliance, which can be very valuable, especially when flying with Alaska Airlines and American Airlines. If you match to Platinum status, that will earn you Oneworld Emerald status, which can open up some international first class lounges on your travels.
