What other Star Alliance program would let me progress and get status from those flights?
I probably will not fly ANA anymore other than for those 5 months, thus maybe registering with ANA is not really a good option?
FYI, I do have a United account but I do not really use it.
Thank you
Which booking class do these ticket book into? Virgin Atlantic could be a good option if you are otherwise flying ST. 750 Tier points is 75% of the way to Gold. 150-200% RDM.
UA can be very good in D, C and J class, 250-300% RDM. Will earn 15k PQP which is close to Platinum, but 4 UA segments are needed.
TAP will get you status with these trips. I don’t think TAP miles are worth much - but you get *A Gold With these 5 return flights.
Unless they are in P class, TK could be a good option as well.
