Home airports are LHR and CGK

(2) What types of fares do you usually buy ? (C, F, Y, etc.)
Mostly Economy - open tickets for long haul to CGK. Have a habit of needing to change dates often on my flights.

(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year? (<25K, 25k-50k, >50k)
>50K

(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it? (UA Premier, M&M Senator etc)
SQ KF-Gold

(5) What is most important to you in a FFP? (Frequent upgrades on travel, priority services when flying the airline, good award redemption rates, free lounge access, etc.)
Good redemption rates, priority bag tags and lounge access.

(6) Which routes do you fly most often (US Domestic, Transpacific etc)
LHR to CGK

(7) Preferred Airlines
Anything with reasonable prices & connection times.

(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure? (Can you chooose your airlines, class of service?)
Pleasure

Additional Info:
I've been a SQ KF Gold for several years but just find that as a programme its not great as unless you can attain PPS, the perks are relatively low on SQ. Redemption on SQ (typical used for upgrades) are now extremely costly as its double miles on their LHR-SIN-CGK route.

Contemplating swapping onto another FF system was wondering if people had advice. Been looking at Mile's and more + Royal Orchid Plus as alternatives but just wanted some advice.

TG looks like it would fit your needs better since M&M needs 100k for *G..
