Which program in Oneworld allows miles transfer?
 

My uncle's family of 5 is flying across the globe next week with American Airlines, so is there a program that can be used with AA flights and can transfer miles to one account?

Thanks for reading and really look forward to your responding.

Qantas program allows family transfer (up to 100k miles per year)
but earn/ burn ratio is not as good as AA

Probably useful for people if you can state the class and route.

BA also has "household accounts", but you can't earn BA miles flying between the US and UK on AA.

thanks guys for your fast respond.

So which one should I go with? BA or Qantas? (the BA 100k miles credit card offer is nice but too bad I don't have any credit record :( )

I haven't ask the class code but they'll be flying economic full rate. From Orlando to Dalas, then to Japan and final destination is Saigon, Vietnam.
That should be at least 15-20k miles per account. And since they only travel once every 4 years I could use those miles even tho I don't have any Oneworld's FF account :D (well I do have a JAL mileage bank but with only 2k miles on it)

It depends on the actual booking class.

I assume the whole itinerary is booked under an AA code. If this is the case, QF will award points only in classes G/L/M/N/S/V (50%) or B/H/K/Y (100%). The minimum amount for a mileage transfer is 5K miles.

If the flight is booked in one of the lower classes, earning 50%, they should earn around 10'100 pts.

Don't know about BA household account, though (but l assume BA to give only 25% for economy travel except for Y/B).

As others have said, the value of QF miles is lower than that of AA miles. Nevertheless QF awards on AA flights don't carry huge taxes/surcharges (but require more points).
