Now, because Northwest/USAir frequent flyer programs are more mileage based, I'd like to try to book those for longer itineraries, whereas since Southwest/Airtran are just segment based, I rather don't mind booking them for shorter itineraries (the catch is, Southwest/Airtran don't seem to fly nonstop or conveniently to my regular destinations (NYC/D.C.) so this method has proved difficult). Does my logic make sense?

Welcome to FT, Yarhead. I suspect that you know this, but it bears repeating. Try to concentrate your miles/EQM on one airline. Since you are not a heavy traveler, you will get more bang for the buck that way.
