Hi all,
I recently started flying around Europe in my job, but not that often. Maybe 20-25 segments a year, mostly short flights with one or two transatlantic flights to US for training. I would like to know if that's worth it to try earning miles, to get a free flight every now and then? I will be very disloyal, probably need one FFP for each alliance, so it has to be non-expiring (if you have some account activity). Just let me get this straight - Alitalia is currently non-expiring, whereas Czech Airlines miles expire, right?
