Bottom-of-the-barrel booking classes unfortunately. K on OS would pay some miles only on AC, UA, and LH, S on LX would be a little more flexible. Try
this website to see what's available.
Can we pull status as one?
No. There are a couple of programs (TK and A3 come to mind) where you could pool your
award miles together in a family account so that you could redeem them, but there's no way to do that with status miles.
What airline program should we join to get the most benefit?
I don't think you can do much, hopefully someone with a better idea will post. I'd write the miles off and just focus on having a good holiday with the family
