Even if you want a stop, would you like to connect as efficiently as possible (for maximum comfort) or zig-zag around the world as much as possible (for maximum miles)?
Would you like to connect in a big airport (hassle with excitement), or a small one (peaceful)?
Would you like to avoid connecting in countries that may require a transit visa even to change planes at the airport? (Not sure which ones do for you case, but it will be a consideration. Getting a visa costs time and money.)
I would prefer a stop. No non-stop flights for me. I like to get off at airports.
Either is fine for me as far as the airport goes. Big or small doesn't make a difference.
I have a US passport so for most countries, visa is not a problem. So I don't think that will matter.

Well I don't have any credit cards at the moment but am planning on getting one. I know Lufthansa has one right?
