(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in OW or other airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
Reply: No real status anywhere. I have
Qantas 65k points
Alaska Airlines 25k points
Chase Ultimate Rewards 5k points, planning to get +70k with Ink Bold cc
(8) Preferred Airlines? Most common Airlines flown on?
Reply: Currently Alaska for domestic flights and Qantas internationally but redemption on Qantas looks terrible, also planning to go to Europe more often now that I have family there.
For awards QF is worse than terrible. Look at
post 330.
For residents of the USA AA is the default choice. AA miles from credit cards is good for many people. But with AS they have QF, CX, AA, & DL as partners so that gives you wide coverage.

I would be looking at using those QF points and use AA or AS as your main ffp. Domestic AA flights using QF points can be reasonable value (compared to other QF awards)
