Which easy FFP to join
 
Hello,
I am thinking about joining a Oneworld FFP, I live in Warsaw but from August I will move to Vancouver, starting with a very low price with BA. I always travel in Economy and I want to join a Oneworld FFP which is easy to reach Ruby, Shaphirre and the last one i dont remember because I am not a true traveller like the majority of you. thank you. and from the time I will move to YVR, I think the best choice is Oneworld with low BA prices. I am member of Skyteam and Star Alliance
I always fly between Vancouver, Warsaw, Hanoi.

The AA program is usually regarded as the best program for people flying economy. Also they don't charge fuel surcharges for awards unless you travel on BA.
The BA program might be interesting as well but only if you can keep your WAW adress as you need a lot less flights to get status when having an address in continental Europe.

I keep asking myself similar questions to the OP, though with slightly different routes.

It seems like Finnair might be an option for me in the near future due to the opening of their SIN route, so I'm wondering which OW FFP to use should I start flying with them.

BA seems like the natural choice if you can use an address in continental Europe, but if you only fly in Y then gaining status is next to impossible. Redemptions are apparently also tricky, with some routes showing little to no availability in premium classes for long stretches...

Just curious if apart from AA there are any other hidden treasures out there...

MA have a status match offer if you take one flight with them. You could use that whilst building status with AA/BA
