Advice needed: which ow FF program?
 

Hi everyone,

I mostly fly ST and whenever necessary *A, but will have to do some legs in ow in my upcoming holidays with LAN Peru in domestic flights.
Although it's not much (only around 1500 miles flights), I'd prefer not to waste them and put them in a FF account. I would therefore like to ask the community for some help in choosing the most suitable FF programme to my travel profile within ow:

• I mostly fly within Europe (between Portugal and Italy) and from Europe to NY;
• I generally fly in Y (not the most discounted fare, but not full Y either);
• As I mostly fly on ST (and *A secondarily), the best programme would be one in which miles did not expire (such as, eg, AF/KL's FB, in which one only has to fly once in every 3 years to keep the miles in the account).

Thank you in advance!

So you will hardly fly OW and you want to use the few miles you got for award tickets?

Then I would recommend AA since they have the best earn/burn rate and you can keep the account active through activity of any sort.

With CO joining *A in the future you might need to think about a new home for your miles since you will not be getting FB miles anymore.

Thank you for the advice, DownUnderFlyer!
