KoreanAir has been 100% earned with credit card purchases - I'll make a switch there after I earn a redeemable amount of miles. Some of the real small balance accounts reflect sign-up/registration bonus miles.

AA and Delta were flights booked for me by others; but had I know that I could use the partner account, I certainly would have.
