Hi, I live in the UK and have been a member of M+M for a number of years. However, with their programme having gone revenue based, and the loss of the UK credit card to prevent miles expiring, I'm thinking it's time to burn the earned miles and 'jump ship' to a new loyalty programme. I've been particularly hurt by the devaluation of flying premium economy to Hong Kong on LH, I fly this every 18 months or so, and have gone from earning 13,500 miles for it, to about 3200.

(1) What is your home airport? MAN
(2) What types of fares do you usually buy? Discount economy,especially intra-Europe although I've started buying N when flying long-haul to relatives in Hong Kong every 18 months
(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year? Return trip to HKG every 18 months, one intra-Europe flight per year - no more than 15,000 miles.
(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it? No
(5) What is most important to you in a FFP? Ability to earn miles which don't expire on a distance-based mileage chart, and have access to reasonably priced redemptions in J
(6) Which routes do you fly most often: MAN-HKG, MAN-ZRH
(7) Preferred Airlines: LH, LX, OS, but open to most *A carriers who fly to HKG
(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure? Pleasure
