Starting DC from scratch - would you do it now?
I have been AC Elite for many years but am LON based and never fly AC. Thus I have stuck with them mostly for the easy *G and lounge access. I typically fly around 50K butt-in-seat miles a year, mostly discounted economy to China/Hong Kong.
Since most of the stuff I get from AC, like SWU/SSWUs, are of no use for me I'm looking at changing FF program for 2006, having qualified as AC elite through Feb 2007 to maintain lounge access.
DC is tempting, though I am not likely to ever fly BMI. It would be for the cash-and-miles redemption possibilities and the double/triple miles for premium *A travel (I am planning to to a bit more of that this year, perhaps an ex-CMB run). Should I change?
BTW, is there a mistake in the DC earnings table that one only gets double miles for SQ F?
Thans in advance for any comments.
