I would have 1x North America return, 1x South America return and probably 2x far/middle east return on them per year. Around 20-25k miles (without exec) I think.. so I would make *G on Asiana after 2 years?

But probably you're right, it's not worth so split up programs just to make *G..
If you fly 35k miles on LX in booking class S (1 TATL trip, 1x Middle East, 1x Asia and 1x South America) I would definitely go with AC/AP as S earns 100% miles and youŽd get *G status. Overall IŽd say AC is superior to OZ Mileage Club. If your travel plans are uncertain, IŽd go with OZ as LX S class also earns 100% miles.

YouŽre right, if you only donŽt get lounge access on 15 flights/year, the MLL Club membership isnŽt worth ir.
