Moving continents. Where to build loyalty?
Hi all, this is my first post! I stumbled upon FT a few months ago and I've been (naturally) hooked ever since. I wanted to ask for your opinion: I am in the process of moving to the NY area from the UK. I'm gold with BAEC but I don't see myself retaining that as I will not need to travel for work outside the US after my move here. Any domestic travel will most likely be limited to fewer than 10 segments per year. I will however need to do 3-4 JFK-ATH roundtrips per year and I would certainly like to do those in J. BA are pretty pricey and award seats are tricky for that route, hence my question. Do you think I'm better off starting from scratch elsewhere?
