I was considering the LH Miles & More Program, as advised by someone and it seemed pretty great since I could credit Qatar Airways miles along with a whole bunch of other partners on it but it seems much tougher to attain *G status needing to hit 100-130k? miles in 2 years.

In essence I would have to maintain the same amount of mileage as SQ KF program of 50K miles per year but I guess the benefit is that I could credit from a larger range of partners and get more luggage allowance on more partners too but since I am still mainly flying out of Singapore, it seems better to credit on KF (if I wasn't choosing OZ) just because I would get a bonus tier factor of 25% now.

Does this seem logical?
Miles and More is a terrible program unless you fly LH group often enough to warrant SEN status. High YQ, bad earn/burn ratio, etc.

OZ sounds like a good fit for you
