Hi all,
Current *A gold and thinking whether to switch to a oneworld program, given their strength in HKG. I will do flights from HKG-SIN (4-6x a year) in Y, one HKG-JFK in flight in PE, and two HKG- Europe trips in Y/PE a year at minimum.
I was thinking whether to keep my KF Gold status in *A or start anew with Alaska/CX AsiaMiles. The main issue would be the ridiculous pricing of CX ex-HKG for personal trips.
