(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Reply: Free lounge access. Extra baggage allowance is also nice.

(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
Reply: <25000 miles - <25 flights

(3) What types of fares do you usually buy?
Reply: Cheapest

(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
Reply: Mix of work and pleasure. For work I can't really choose my airline and fly economy.

(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often?
Reply: At the moment I'm based in Arcata, California and the closest airport is San Francisco. I don't have many work trips but they will likely all be to Asia.
I'm from Australia however and will likely move back closer to there in the next 1-3 years, possibly to somewhere in Asia, at which point I will be doing a lot of travel around Asia and maybe to Australia and back.

(6) What is your home airport?
Reply: SFO currently but will likely change to somewhere in Asia in the next 1-3 years.

(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in tOW or other airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
Reply: None. I have about 20,000 miles on Qantas and about 4,000 miles on Malaysia Air Enrich (which was a mistake), and 13,770 Virgin Velocity points. I really need to consolidate my miles and have a strategy on earning them going forwards.

(8) Preferred Airlines? Most common Airlines flown on?
Reply: None really. Though my work trip coming up to India and Perth, Australia is mostly on Cathay Pacific.
