(1) FRA, MUC, STR
(2) Economy, probably discounted
(3) 25k-50k
(4) I have no status what so ever but I am member with KLM, BA and M&M. I ahve got miles but not many status miles.
(5) Lounge Access
(6) I currently need to Fly out of FBM (either home or on holiday around the world, usually the first leg is going to JoBurg)
(8) Both and both time it is just economy. I can pick flights to some degree.

When I fly SAA from Germany to JoBurg and then to FBM I don't earn miles on the SAE flight when I am sticking to M&M; and also I think 35k miles is hard to reach to get my first status upgrade
