Best program for TLL-based occasional flyer
Based in TLL and fly occasionally on AY, IB, and (rarely) BA or AB for business on short-haul European connecting flights.

Already have UA Platinum/*G, so am not seeking to maximize my Oneworld flying. My only criteria are:
-Relatively good expiration period for miles earned
-Relatively generous earnings on discounted intra-European fares
-No fuel surcharges for European redemption (I understand AY has now introduced this benefit)

Given these criteria, would you go with AY, the airline whose metal (well, FC/flybe Nordic) I'll be flying most? Or do IB, S7, or even something like MH offer a better fit?

Many thanks for any input!!
