I'm (belatedly) joining the club. I'm absolutely traumatised by the demise of DC like the rest of you -- nothing is anywhere near it. I can't believe I spent 10 years on United before discovering BMI 3 years ago...

I don't suppose (and here I am being super-hopeful) that anyone has seen a table (up-to-date) online comparing all the FF features of all the *A airlines?

My requirements are: use miles to fly business class to NZ; earn miles on long-haul to US and Asia from Europe, and from credit card; not normally a problem reaching gold status so that's less of an issue.

So far I've heard A3, US, TK, OZ and SAS. Is US looking like the winner?
