Which ST airline should I post miles?
I am a newbie on this alliance, as I fly mainly AA. I have some flights coming up soon to cities not rachable w/ AA. To whom should I post my miles: NW (5055), Delta (89900), or CO (1138)? I don't think that I will make enough ST flights this year for status in any of them. 1st flight is on NW metal. Also, are there any bonuses I could sign up for to help increase my totals? Thanks

The US airlines will match status. The European will not.
A bit depends on whether you fly in the front of the plane or the back. You get 150% of Y &C or J miles credit on US carriers, but some european carriers give 200%.
