United 1K, moving from US to UK
I have been United 1K for 5+ years, moving to UK from US in a week and will be there for the foreseeable future.
My annual travel is expected to be: 1) 3x return LHR-SFO-NYC-LHR in Business. 2) 1x return LHR - DEL - LHR in Business or Economy. 3) 2-3 return trips within Europe. Given the above, 1) which airline program should I switch to? 2) If the answer is BA, should I status match to AA -> BA or go directly with BA? |

A few (cheap?) trips to EU will not earn much to any ffp Is price a factor in the USA - India flights? If yes may be best to go with the best schedule-fare Why switch? BA will not status match AA. Anyway you may be better with AA. AA is distance based ff earning on non AA tickets. Revenue on AA tickets Main threads---> https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/info...help-here.html https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/onew...help-here.html https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/star...post-here.html https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/skyt...i-sign-up.html |
I would probably stay where you are. Status matching probably won't work, you can do your US and European flights on UA/LH.
