Thanks for the replies so far. I guess I should've been a bit more specific. I usually fly from YUL, KUL or AMS and am currently resident in both Canada and Malaysia, but I might be resident in Eastern Europe (Warsaw, Prague or Budapest) in the near future. I typically fly the cheapest, full miles-earning economy ticket for short-haul, and the cheapest WBC fare I can find on long-haul. I don't travel to or through the US anymore. My first choice had been Flying Dutchman, but because of my residence and because I was mostly flying NWA on trans-pacific routes at the time, I was forced into into WP. It was a pecularity of the NWA/KLM alliance that some people could not join Flying Dutchman and had to join WorldPerks
