(e.g., upgrades, priority services, baggage allowance, good award redemption rates, better award access, lounge access)
Reply: Miles that don't expire or at least renewable with activity and cheap reward flights. If they have a credit card partner that helps with this, I'm also open to that option. Status isn't important.

8. What are your preferred airlines, if any?
Reply: Skyteam. I've got about 25000 with DL right now but I'm considering jumping to another airline. AM maybe?
As a USA resident you are better in a USA airline ffp:- AA or AS or UA
