Home airport YVR.Thanks
Living in North America AA is the obvous choice, even with the upcoming changes
But AA status is on calender year, so Nov & Dec status earning get lost

USA based airline ffp's tend to more generous (earn/burn/upgrades/award cost/award cash surcharges/expiry)

MM may not be 100% accurate with earnings or routes
