With Delta, you only hear people complaining that they can never use their miles. And if you don’t live in the US, what is Delta status good for? Sure, you would get some status benefits flying KL/AF, but I thought that’s what you don’t do?
To me, VS is the only program that would make sense.
Good point, but I am not sure how the earnings would work there with Codeshare flights, as it is stated e.g. for Delta: "As a Flying Club member you can earn on all Delta operated and marketed services". So what would happen to the examples above? AFxxxx op. by DL etc.etc.
