(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Reply: Good award redemption rates, good upgrades to Business from economy, basically around the awards
(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
Reply: I would fly domestically in India probably 5-10 times a year, and internationally probably 5-20 flights. Depending on time. Probably 25,000km to 100,000km a year - depending on leave
(3) What types of fares do you usually buy?
Reply: Lately business, but that's costing a bit so maybe a bit of business and economy, and if there's a really ridiculously cheap flight then maybe that (but that's just for costs, not points if really cheap)
(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
Reply: 95% pleasure, 5% work
(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often?
Reply: Before it was Malaysian/Emirates - but now sometimes Jet Air as well. Routes are generally Delhi to Bangalore domestically, and Delhi to KL or Delhi to Melbourne or occasionally Europe.
(6) What is your home airport?
Reply: DEL (Delhi)
(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: Silver on Malaysian Enrich, but they're about to devalue their points so I need an alternative asap with flights coming up this year. I also have Emirates Skyways - and I just opened Singapore and BA accounts recently as well. Jet airways in India too.
(8) Preferred Airlines? Most common Airlines flown on?
Reply: It used to be Malaysia Airlines, but since their product is not particularity great anymore, and they are massively devaluing their points - it remains any airline right now. There are plans to go to North America and Melbourne thsi year, so I would be looking at One World partner or direct airlines.
Hope this helps.
