And so I wonder... Would I get better recognition from AF/KLM and more upgrades from AF/KLM if I were to get status with FB (by recording my FB number for my forthcoming AF flights) rather than OK+?
Upgrades are a stated OK+ benefit so they'll upgrade you if there's space available. AF on the other hand, will only upgrade when necessary and the algorithm they use is not very clear. As for KL, most intra-Europe flyers will do whatever they can to reduce their chances of op-up.
