I probably won't travel there often enough to pick up status with another airline and don't yet know what class of travel would be paid for. If all J, then it does not matter too much which alliance is used but it would be nice to a) stick to SkyTeam for maintenance of my current status, and b) use my current status to maximise travel perks (priority/lounge access) if travel is in Y/W.
