Is it better to funnel Jet Air flight points to Skywards, or JP Miles?
Jet Air has quite a few partners.
Basically I fly a little overseas, a little domestically - however does it make more sense to channel all the flights I take domestically into JP Miles, or is it better to funnel it into Malaysia Airlines/Emirates/something else - or to keep them in JP Miles.
I ask because unless i'm flying domestically, I don't want to fly Jet Airways overseas as there are far better airlines. However I'm not sure how the points structuring works - anyone care to help?

Can you share what international/domestic routes do you fly, how often, what cabin and what do you want to use your awards for?
This is pertinent because not all FF programs are equal. The differ on things like:

- Redemption charts some are better, for short haul, others are better for long haul.
- Ease of attaining/maintaining status
- Star A or OW
