I am about to qualify for my first time PPS, but I'm considering on changing carriers to CX as well.. I heard about everything bad in SQ but found myself so hard to actually move..

Mainly the problem is I fly ever so often a year that I had around 60,000 Star Alliance miles which qualifies me for *G every year.. The problem is that the qualification for CX is 60,000 One World miles.. In which case, if I fly with CX a year I'll only qualify for their silver. The calculation is based on 2x R/T C flight a year to SE Asia which counts as 23,000 per R/T and an equivalent of 46,000 miles a year..

I am in a dilemma, and I ask humbly for all FTers to help me solve this case. This might be easy for some of you, but bare in mind.. It is very difficult a decision for me..

Thank you in advance
