Looking at the Asiana website I think it is 1'000'000 miles for lifetime membership? That would be the Platinum level? How likely will these airlines stay with the alliance. I would hate to hit that level and have Asiana move out of Star Alliance or something lol.
I like the appeal of something that is a lifetime membership.... Too bad SQ did away with that on the PPS level.

Actually, you should have a look at Asiana.
You'll qualify for *Gold easy (40k in 2 years). Also, if you keep up this pace of travel, Lifetime *G is also possible (500k lifetime miles).
Main disadvantage of Asiana is the earn/burn ration, but if you are predominantly on Economy, it doesn't really matter much.
However, do note that for SIN-KLA flights, if it is a Silkair plane (even if you bought a SQ ticket), you won't be able to get mileage for it on any program except for SQ KF.
