Hello everyone,

First of all, I'm sorry if I am posting this on a wrong forum.

I am relatively young and as I posted previously, I want to make sure that I am going in a right direction with all these expenses / spending coming up as well as flights.

From the previous post, I have a sense of what cards to put on business expenses / spending but as far as actual flying goes...

One of the things we all want to achieve is the elite membership status and definitely lifetime status sounds very attractive..

After researching this forum and googling for a while, here's what I think that makes most sense to me.. Please correct me because I'm sure I'm wrong..

Isn't it better to use Korean Air FF # for actual flying on ALL SkyTeam flights given that it is easiest to get SkyTeam Elite + lifetime?

For example, I can apply for Delta credit cards, and utilize their sign-up bonus / miles posted from credit card use but whenever I actually fly on SkyTeam flights, isn't it better to put that on Korean Air so that I can get to lifetime SkyTeam elite + fastest? That way, I can enjoy benefits of elite member status on all SkyTeam partners..

The same goes for Star Alliance. It seems it is best if I put every Star Alliance flights on BMI.


Am I missing something big here? I feel like I am...Please advise!
