I'm looking to jump ship from Asiana to one of these so I've been studying both airlines' earn charts/qualification/requal requirements.
Yes - the 2 year window with TK is a big plus. I've used wheretocredit.com to look at earn rates and there are swings and round abouts. Long-haul I fly mostly SQ and TG, within Europe I often find myself on LH.
