Hello, I m new to this forum and as my main city where I lived in and also my travel routes changed maybe I can improve my bonus miles programs.
1. What is most important to you in a frequent flyer program (FFP)?
economy seat selection, upgrades
2. How many miles do you usually fly each year? How many flights/sectors?
around 100k miles at least, dont know about the segments
3. What fare class do you usually buy?
cheapest economy
4. Are you able to choose your airlines and/or class of service? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
sometimes I can choose, sometimes not. I often depart from PLS and only resonable connections is with AA from there. I mainly travel for pleasure
5. Which routes do you fly most often
PLS - Europe or YYZ - Europe followed by YYZ to Caribbean or Middle America
6. What is your home airport?
PLS but I also travel also from YYZ
7. Do you have status in any FFP? What is it? How miles do you have banked in a FFP, if any?
AA Platinum, LH Miles & More 2k status miles
8. What are your preferred airlines, if any?
the cheapest ones

If I depart from PLS to somewhere I always have to use AA and go thorugh MIA as hub. It s the only airline with reasonable connections from there. As they credit miles in the AAdvantage program by distance I easily can keep status with Oneworld.
This Miles and More LH program with StarAlliance just credits 0.25% the miles actually travelled if I book cheap economy flights which are often AC flights from YYZ to Europe or to Caribbean destinations. Maybe some other StarAlliance bonus programm would be better? I decide to go with StarAlliance because it s most of the time cheaper and offers a lot more direct flights from YYZ at the same time than OneWorld
