AS is not (yet) a revenue based ffp. AA is an AS partner on international flights, but not USA domestic flights. EK is an AS ff partner.

Deciding on a Oneworld Frequent Flyer Program? Help is here
Having multiple ffp’s with low balances is never a good idea. You may never get enough ff miles/points to be of use before they expire. Adding frequent miles in a ff program that you can use, are worth more than ff miles in an orphan ffp that you will never use, even if the earning rate is nominally
better.
So be mindful of expiry

I credit Cathay to Asia Miles, though the program kinda sucks. I credit EK to EK because it doesn't take too much to get free upgrades.
I've never flown BA and haven't flown AA in 20 years. I rarely fly US domestic (1-2 times per year). I fly international constantly... literally.
Thanks for the links.

I'd only care about RDM. Never fly Alaska, but would be ok to get a free trip as that's the only state I've never been to.
