flyer265 Welcome to FT

What is your definition of best? Will be different to mine.

Max ff miles is meaningless, as ff miles are not equal to earn or burn. 10,000 ff miles in 1 ffp may get you a longer award flight than 15,000 ff miles in another ffp. And then there is award cash surcharges with some ffp's/routes/airline.

What benefits do you expect from ffp status? If flying paid first or business ffp status tends to give no extra benefits, other than more ff miles.

The airline you fly most or an airline of the country you live is the best ffp for many people. Generally however you are better earning on your primary airline due to greater recognition, better service when disruptions, ability to upgrade flights and possible operational upgrades.

Earning miles from non flying activities is easier with an airline of your home country.
