hello,

i am CO onepass member, not an elite but i have accumulated 130k miles and now i have a trip coming up in FEB from aus-ewr-man-dxb-hyd-jfk-aus. i was just wondering if anyone can suggest me is it better to add these miles to my CO One pass or open a skywards acct and add it to that. i am using CO, Emirates and Delta for the trip and as i am booked in lowly Xclass on CO i will only get 50% of EQM and on delta i am on U class and get only 50% of EQM's. sbut if i use skywards i will be getting 100% EQM's for the trip but the only disadvantage is the miles expire in 3 years. how easy it is to book award tickets domestically with skywards miles. any tips welcome

thanks
