Soda would be in no way acceptable for me

Will be going for BA most likely. They will comp me to Silver and the 800 points to reach gold are a piece of cake with on F RTW.

AA seems to have the most sympathetic program and: lifetime status possibility. I have talked to different AA people in UK office and US office but they will not comp anything else than UA. Also they still will not give me miles for supersonic flights.

CX gives miles for all BA and AA flights, comps, but seems to be complicated, not really valueing the FFs, and, most critical, hard to maintain Diamond status.

I must say I really like this idea of Lifetime Status, more airlines should offer this. So you know sometimes will an end to the Mileage Run and you can concentrate on the next airline (:
