2) 1x return LHR - DEL - LHR in Business or Economy.
3) 2-3 return trips within Europe.
Given the above,
1) which airline program should I switch to?
2) If the answer is BA, should I status match to AA -> BA or go directly with BA?
What are your objectives from a ffp?
A few (cheap?) trips to EU will not earn much to any ffp
Is price a factor in the USA - India flights? If
yes may be best to go with the best schedule-fare
Why switch?
BA will not status match AA. Anyway you may be better with AA. AA is distance based ff earning on non AA tickets. Revenue on AA tickets
