Hi all

I am a current M&M silver member and didn't make enough miles to hit Gold this period. Had I been with TK or OZ, I would have hit their minimum and become Gold and therefore I'm looking to swap SA programs.

Will TK or OZ status match my silver?
Do I have to fly on one of their flights to be eligible to accrue/spend miles?
Which program would you recommend being based in ZRH (I tend to fly LX mostly).
Which program has the best award redemptions (lowest milage requirement for economy is fine)
Does either program offer Gold via segments (I tend to fly a lot of short hops in Europe)

Thanks in advance
