Question lone5 from australia looking to maximise status and or points

Hi,
Hope somebody on the forum isnt too sick of answering questions regarding lone5's and earning points and status.

Firstly here is the route that i am planning to complete hopefulyl everything checks out per the rules if not some assistance would be greatly appreciated.

mel-cns-drw-per-mel-nrt QF
Nrt-hkg-cts-hkg-bkk CX
bkk-lhr-dxb-lhr-hel-lhr-gig BA
Gig-scl-ppt-scl-eze-lax Lan
-ord-anc-dfw-yvr-jfk AA
jfk-syd.QF

Not sure about the scl-ppt is it in the swp or south america?

Flying in economy class, but was looking to upgrade the BA sectors to world traveller plus.

Now my next question is which frequent flyer porgram should i join to earn the most status points/credits so that i can reach a higher status. whilst earning some points but with a bigger emphasies on status credits.

I am a member of Qantas already but no status

I was thinking that AA would be the best program, but wasnt sure if any miles could be earned on CX, QF or Lan.

your replies would be very much appreicated.
