Reikonnen - Thanks for this I will get in touch with AA. I’m sure I’ll find the contact details somewhere in this thread.

Volvic – Many thanks for this - it's important to me to remember this. One of the reasons I don't have Oneworld status is due to the fact that BA are so expensive for CW compared to others I use AF/BMI/KLM/UAL/NW. I’ll use AA metal for transatlantic to ensure miles etc are ok. I often use MAN and I believe BA transatlantic are ok for miles from here.

Gemac - appreciate your help - looks like I'll earn status easily enough. I do a few interanl flights in US but I can always use existing status with other airlines or Priority Club card for lounge access.
