Only one year of frequent flying - which programme?
My parents normally only make one significant flight per year - Holland to New Zealand.

However, for a variety of reasons, this year they will come three times. That means they will fly about 57,000 miles between April and December and about 69,000 within 12 months from April. After that it is back to one return trip per year.

They are considering flying CX and I was wondering what would be the best programme for them to credit to. Had they flown Staralliance they would have (easily) been able to get to Gold and even keep it for two years (as with Thai) but I am not familiar with Oneworld. I am aware of the platinum challenge but I am not sure if it is the best option in this case.

Any suggestions?
