hello, im trying to figure out which is the best oneworld program to advise a friend based in DXB. right now im undecided between:

- JAL: allows to credit emirates and ow flights in one program and is preferred vs alaska airlines because it doesnt require to start trip in us
- QR: possibility of achieving status and decent award chart, plus pooling with credit card miles
- AA: good award chart, no fuel surcharge, miles expiry rules

i have posted a similar request in the information desk forum and received already some good help, but i guess this forum is most appropriate in deciding specifically which oneworld program

(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
earn/burn ratio for longhaul redemptions
lounge access

(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
mostly short haul from DXB in Y 10 segments per year, a couple of business class trip per year max

(3) What types of fares do you usually buy?
Cheapest fare available

(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
can choose airline

(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often?
EK and QR mainly

(6) What is your home airport?

(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?
