Hello,
I am about to do quite a bit of flying with *A and I am looking to join the FF program (my wife and I are flying around the world next month). I currently live in the US, but I am moving and then living in Australia, so Krisflyer and New Zealand FFs are the obvious choices, but I would prefer to join a FF program where the points do not expire (if used once a year etc.).
I was looking into UA, as I can join and get 50K miles (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unite...promotion.html), and this would help me start with a nice number of miles.
From Australia I will be typically flying to Singapore at least once a year (on Y, sometimes twice or more), so I do not fly *A very often, but I would still like to get something out of it.

Would anyone have any suggestions on whether I should join UA or any of other *A FF program?
Thanks for all your help.
