Hello, apologies in advance if this question has been answered elsewhere on the forum. I have only just started taking the time to investigate joining FFPs. Having had a look around, it seems like a number of FFPs will honour flights taken with the relevant airline within up to 12 months prior to joining. A notable exception appears to be American. Does anyone happen to know whether any other Oneworld airlines will honour flights taken on other oneworld (i.e. American) so I can get recognition upon joining of a recent LHR-TVC return journey I took a couple of weeks ago? I have a similar question about a number of Star Alliance long haul flights I've taken in the last year which I will post in the Star Alliance forum. My responses to the standard intro questions are below.
