To the best of my knowledge, all airline status needs to be attain annually. By calendar year, if I am not mistaken. AA Lifetime is the only exception to this general rule that counts any source of miles for the Lifetime status.

Actually you are too new (& "inexperienced" young) to the miles/points/elite game that I don't think you fully understand what had been given in this thread so far. Most of your questions, IMHO, had been answered but you failed to understand the concepts. I would suggest you to read all the sticky threads in all the forums (such as AA, CX, OW...etc) that interest you and study the programs (FFPs) terms that you plan to take "aggressive" action in.

Your best bet is to pick the alliance that suits you most and credit all your miles/points activities to the chosen FFP within the alliance. However, HK being your current hub, having both CX and AA accounts active should be a better strategy for you.

Don't mean to sound harsh but FT is organized in a way that you can't do "one-stop shopping" to get all you need. When your interests and questions are specific to one program or destination, you need to go each designated forum and dig or ask the questions. On FT, there are airline forums, hotel forums, alliance forums, destination forums, just to name a few. Happy already gave you this advice but I am going to repeat it: study the program rules in depth. You have to educate yourself so any informed decision/understanding can be made. That's the only way to make yourself a savvy FTer.
