Hey guys!
Long time lurker, mainly for the reviews on the hotels, but I've recently begun a new job that requires a lot of international travel. Hopefully I'm headed in the right direction, but would love your guys' guidance!
(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Reply: If I had to rank, it would probably be:
1. Upgrades
2. Points for personal travel with my wife
Those are really my two biggest concerns, and they are nearly equal in importance with Upgrades giving a slight edge since I'm the one who has to do all the long haul travel and it's already getting kind of old sitting in coach.
(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
(<25000, 25000-50000, >50000 miles - <25, 25-50, >50 flights?)
Reply: I've been with the company for about 6 months now and have traveled 54,000 miles so if pace keeps up, I should be close to 100,000 but a conservative guess would be 75,000 miles.
(3) What types of fares do you usually buy ?
(First, Business, Premium economy, Economy, cheapest)
Reply: Premium Economy whenever I can, otherwise Economy
(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Airline most flown? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
Reply: Yes, I can choose my airline and
technically I can choose business class, but we get a kickback bonus if we choose economy which I always opt for. Currently I fly American Airlines. It is work travel. Also, most employees rarely ever choose Business because of the kickback, but also because of how it would look when you're the only one choosing to spend the company's money on the upgrade.
(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often
(US Domestic, Transpacific, Kangaroo, in Asia etc)
Reply: Round trip from Phoenix to Middle East, Asia and soon the UK
(6) What is your home airport?
(SFO, SCL, London LHR, HKG, Singapore SIN etc.)
Reply: PHX
(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in an airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
(AA Executive Platinum, UA 1K, LAN Comodoro, etc)
Reply: I am currently AA Platinum which I only just recently achieved. I have 45k miles left to go to get to Executive Platinum
(8) Preferred Airlines
Reply: That's what I'm trying to find out based on points!

But currently, it's AA only because a few people here chose to go with AA because they used to be based out of DFW.
Thanks for the help everyone!
