You have a big overlap with AA, QF & EK. AA & QF are Oneworld partners. QF & EK are frequent flyer partners.
The expiry of all these miles/points needs consideration. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/miles...-t-expire.html

Lounge access generally comes with status & class of service.
Upgrades with miles/cash co pay now tend to based on the fare you buy and status. Low cost fares are often not eligible for upgrades.
Forget about "free" upgrades on non USA airlines and increasingly on USA airlines
