I did a quick google search of the site and found a thread that said the AA FF programme was probably the best one to join in terms of benefits / earning / reward etc.

I am based in the UK and don't fly that often (few times a year) normally on *A but at times I end up on other airlines. Quite happy to get the AA VIsa (UK) for the 5000 bonus and spend (when I cannot use my Amex) to keep the account alive.

I know the TATL on BA in Y is only 25% but better than nothing (just!)

Thoughts appreciated.

Thanks
