(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in an airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
Reply: Will be diamond on Delta through 2016 and currently over 200k skymiles.
(8) Preferred Airlines
Reply: Fly almost exclusively Delta currently. Not being able to get even one companion into Comfort+ at booking has greatly reduced how valuable their program is for me.
Very unlikely any other ffp will be better for you. More so with no status, if you join another ffp.
Upgrades & better seating are not an entitlement (far too many people with top level status for that)
Such is way forward with ffp's.
