Flying AMS-DOH-HND round trip in R class (business) on QR. Using the BA Tier Point calculator, it looks like I would earn 560 tier points from this itinerary (140 TP per leg). BA Silver (OW Sapphire) is 600 TP, leaving me 40 TP and 4 BA segments short. Looks like JFK-LHR-AMS cash fare (RT) will net me 50 TP in O class and cover the 4 segment requirement for BA Silver.

Is there any other program that would get me OW Sapphire status like this?
From your profile "Programs: AA/JL, KE, NH"
Why would you want to join a 3rd oneworld ffp?
Why not put to AA?
Getting OW Sapphire status from 1 trip is unrealistic.
www.wheretocredit.com/qr for redeemable ff miles. Determining status earning is much more difficult, especially with revenue based ffp's
