Previously I was a Delta member and to sum it up...I will never be a Delta member again nor do I have any desire to

I get most of my miles from American Express points and completing various offers online as well.

I'm currently trying to decide on a new FF program to join and dedicate my business and time to for earning miles.

I live in San Diego and usually fly to Europe at least yearly. I anticipate I'll be traveling over the next few years heavily as I plan to travel before marriage, kids, etc.

Any thoughts or suggestions between Continental, Air France, or NW?

I'm mainly looking for a program that is easy to book awards on, and has promos to earn extra miles (like DL's quarterly 25% mileage transfer).

I'm new to the FF and FT world so any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
