(1) What is your home airport?
LHR

(2) What types of fares do you usually buy?
normal/discounted economy (Y class?)

(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year?
25-50k

(4) Do you have any kind of status at present?
None currently, had UA Gold and BA Silver at some point.

(5) What is most important to you in a FFP?
priority checkin/security, upgrades on intl flights, redeem miles for free tickets, lounge access

(6) Which routes do you fly most often per year?
LHR to SFO (2-4x), to CDG (10x), everywhere in Germany FRA, HAM, DUS (15x) total around ~30 inter europe, and 4-6 to USA or asia including personal

(7) Preferred Airlines
you tell me? T5 for BA is nice, and econ+ for UA is great, but open to anything. comfort is king (BA econ to USA is horrible!)

(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure? 90% work on econ class, usually can get econ+ if available for nominal fee (or free with status). for personal, fly econ/econ+

have three scheduled LHR-SFO flights in next 3 months, good time to choose a FFP or maybe stick with UA/BA? current UA membership has 6K mi banked. BA blue membership has 60K mi banked (140 tier pts/19 flight segments towards silver)
