(1) What is your home airport? (SFO, SCL, London LHR, HKG, Singapore SIN etc.)
I used to be LAX but now I'm being relocated to IND but I don't mind the drive to ORD.
(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? (<25K, 25k-50k, >50k)
25k-40k-ish.
(3) What types of fares do you usually buy ? ( First, Business, Economy etc.)
Full Fare Economy
(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or, class of service?. Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
I can choose my airline. Class of service is a stretch. 50/50 work-pleasure
(5) Which routes do you fly most often (US Domestic, Transpacific, Kangaroo, in Asia etc)
Mostly international-EU, China, SE Asia and Dubai. Dubai is often a rarity though. From what I've heard, my EU trips in the future may be pulled and instead moved to S America.
(6) Do you have FFP status of any kind of OW or other airline at present? What is it? (AA Executive Platinum, QF Gold, UA 1K, LAN Comodoro, etc)
I was elite on EI. har har
(7) What is most important to you in a FFP? (upgrades on travel, priority services when flying the airline, extra baggage allowance, good award redemption rates, better award access, free - discounted lounge access, etc.)
Lounge Access and priority is a plus. Inter-airline award F travel is also on the list but I wouldn't mind not having it. Also, with unpredictable economic times, I'd appreciate a program that doesn't have an expiry rate shorter than a year.
(8) Preferred Airlines
I know this is going to be harder when I say this, but I try to avoid AA. My parents fly them though, so I'd be open to any of the AA partners as well.

Thanks in advance!
