Hello to all! I have a question also regarding the best program to choose from.
Questions
(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Lounge access, baggage allowance, priority check in
(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
Around 20000 miles (Economy), with 15-20 flights
(3) What types of fares do you usually buy?
Economy, probably the cheapest prices
(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
Yes, I can choose airlines. I travel mostly for work and sometimes leisure
(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often?
Mostly within Europe, and about one intercontinental travel. Airlines ... depending on destination and prices (i try mostly Star Alliance).
(6) What is your home airport?
I have been to different places, but for future reference I would say ATH (Athens, Greece)
(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in OW or other airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
Yes, I am Gold in Star Alliance (Aegean) and I have about 25000 miles in AA.
(8) Preferred Airlines? Most common Airlines flown on?
Aegean in Star Alliance - I am looking the one in One World!
Actually I have credited my miles in AA but I do not think that I get so much out of this ff program. I would like something that I could easily hit a status (not the top one) to have access in lounges mainly when travelling. I have seen the previous discussion on Qatar and Finnair, and I wonder if this apply to my case also (and perhaps Jordanian Airlines?).
