Best FF program
Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone could help me here. Which Star Alliance program generally cost the fewest miles for an award ticket ? For example, I usually buy my award tickets through United, a first class ticket is 70,000 miles, and I'm usually on either Lufthansa or Asiana metal.
I've done some research, and it appears that the other programs charge much more than 70,000 miles. Flights between Asia and America connecting in Germany with Miles and More were well over 100,000 miles. But perhaps I'm missing something.
I usually fly between LIT, PAR or ICN. I work half a year is Paris, and the other half in Seoul while my family is in Little Rock (LIT).
Would it be best to continue to use my United mileage plus number when I travel on a Star Alliance flight or switch to another FF program such as Miles and More.
Thank you very much for any help you can provide !
