Also my travel patters are extremely sporadic, I can fly 50K miles one year, not fly at all the next two, then fly 80K miles another year and then nothing. I think AA's lifetime benefit will help me the most, then i don't have to worry about maintaining status, achieving it is no problem for me, it's maintaining it that i can't seem to do very well...
