What airline to Europe?
Upgrades USA east coast to west coast are hard: a lot of others want the same.
Post 3 has links to AA vs UA vs DL.
There is a sub forum on credit cards.

I suspect you will status challenged for some time
Mostly, I just want status for 2017 which is supposed to be a big travel year. I also need to decide what credit card to get, and which airline to take to Europe, so I figured I'd try and find an ideal scenario in which i can start consolidating ffp into one account.
