desire award bookings, a place to collect miles

I have a decent number of miles in both sky and one world without status.

Lately I want to travel to places on airlines not connected to OW and Sky i.e. Singapore and Air Canada

Seems Asiana Turkish Aegean and yes JetBlue are best bets. Pluses include fewer miles, not having to fly on their metal, more ways to earn etc.

Thank you for your help. I'm getting back into travel with all the new changes
What Skyteam & OW airlines are you a member of?
Some alliance airlines have other airlines as freq flyer partners
e.g AA and Jetlbue; UA & EK, AS and KE/SQ.

Some cheap flights can earn nil ff miles. Check the fine details
A guide--> https://www.wheretocredit.com/

With few flights need to consider ff miles expiration

Agree UA, with no miles expiration, is good place to hold ff miles from Star Airlines & UA partners

With few flights saving cash on tickets will be more than the "value' you will get from ff miles. Best not to consider ff miles that much when purchasing. Just something that may or may not be used/of value in the future.
