(8) Mixture of both (for work, it's mostly lx.)

At first, I was considering A3, but I actually don't really need lounge access, as I have a DC cc and basic priority pass, and don't really care for priority boarding. I also have a cc that collects some M&M miles, but I don't think I will be able to collect any substantial amounts with it (around 10k per year). Mostly looking for a program with good redemption rates, high award availability and with low additional taxes.

Cheers and thanks in advance for any help!
If you fly TK, why not credit to them? They have a fairly low *G threshold, and they will treat their own elites better than elites from other *A airlines.

Avoid M&M for obvious reasons..
