OneWorld - but which FF to choose
Hi all
Which oneworld frequent flyer program would you recommend for someone based in London, that only flies occasionally with oneworld airlines (usually BA/Iberia)?
Does any of the programs have a no expiration date on the miles?
Any currently offering perks when joining (like miles or free lounge pass)?
Thanks in advance.

I'd say go with BA. You can get easy miles from Tesco to prevent any miles expiring, and if you're not planning to go for elite status, they are all going to be much of a muchness in my opinion. If elite status were an option or goal, my answer may be different.

I agree with Microwave. Normally, the AA program is considered to be the best for the occasional Y flyer. However, the BA program has improved a lot and with you being based in the UK you can use all the opportunities to get extra miles through non flying activities.
