Forget about considering any other OW airline. You get AA miles on BA. A recent AA - BA ffp agreement has cross airline benefits
So I take it the AA program is better than the one from BA?

Never heard about this challenge before, but just read up on it. Sounds like a great thing. Thanks a lot for bringing this up.

Miles & More lets you keep your status for two years. So I will stay with it as well (have like 300k miles), but thought I might join a second one, now that I live in the U.S.

Does the AA program allow for easy upgrades and free flights without much hassle?
