So, to answer your statement, the only reasonable alternative to all this is to do app-o-ramas frequently, in hopes of accumulation (eventually) enough miles in a single ff program to earn a premium cabin flight.
If there is an easier way to achieve this, please enlighten me, as I am quite desperate to know.
You joined FT in April 2011 and yet so far have not even discovered the AA credit cards? You can get 50K miles each and applying 2 cards at the same time would net you 100K plus after you meet the spend requirement. If you want to go next with star alliance, next time you could get UA card and Sapphire Preferred card (and supplement with Freedom at a future time) should get you on your merry way (for another trip). Many posters have been telling you all these as early as in Post #3.
