What is important to them might not be so important to you, and vice versa.

Decide what you want out of a frequent flyer program (free tickets? Upgrades? What?). How much is quite a bit (10,000 butt-in-seat miles/year? 25,000? 50,000? 100,000?). Where are you flying from/to? Do schedules and nonstops matter to you?

Then come back here and post that information, and everyone will be happy to catch you up on the pluses and minuses.
