Advice on a European program

Up to this point I have used AA on OW, NH on SA and KE on ST.
For me two things is about to change.

1. I will be traveling more in and around Europe, hereunder to and from CDG, BSL, AMS, HEl and OSL.

2. AA is changing their program, so all miles no longer count. That makes me want to dump AA, but OW does not have many European besides from BA and AY. Are any of those program good enough to replace, or better then AA?

One option is to start using JL on AA and replace NH with something else, but what? LX?

Some expert advice would be awesome. Thanks in advanced.

"AA is changing their program, so all miles no longer count."

No longer count for what? What were you trying to achieve with AA? Lifetime status? Or just annual status?

Remember that the BA program is changing come Nov, and that most non-US programs charge YQ, which could defeat the purpose of miles.
