(1) What is your home airport?
YUL (Montreal)

(2) What types of fares do you usually buy ?
Y

(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year?
roughly 25K on average, but quite variable, only about 10K this year and probably 35K last year

(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it?
none. I have never been strategic in my FF collecting so far, I usually go with my cheapest options (excluding charter) when I am searching. So I am going to have around 13000 with SkyTeam now. I have recently emptied my M&M account and just opened a Oneoworld (BA) account.

(5) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Good redemption rates/options from YUL to anywhere in the world or the occasional domestic flight, or the occasional upgrade. I have figured that I am not going to gain status as long as I am at my current job with no travel and not enough vacation for travel for pleasure

(6) Which routes do you fly most often
Transatlantic (mostly to Turkey) and within North America / domestic Canada

(7) Preferred Airlines

I really love Lufthansa!

(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure?
Pleasure


I am a Canadian resident but have family in Turkey, so I feel like both AC and Turkish make sense, but I don't like AC that much.
i don't fly enough to accrue status points but I can get reward miles through Amex in canada or other CC for points transferable to Aeoroplan. I may also be able to get a Turkish CC since I am a citizen but would probably have to find a way around residency address.

PS: I think after reading through these forums and some websites, I decided to start collecting at Oneworld even though I almost have never flown with them, but my current credit card offers 1:1 to AA and avios so I'd like to take advantage of that. However I am still considering *A because I just think it makes sense given my connections to Canada and Turkey.
