Hi there,

I have flown China Southern Airlines (CZ) a couple of times, and will fly with them again later this year. Given that I foresee I will be visiting China again a few times in the near future, I am considering which frequent flyer program to credit these CZ flights for someone who lives in Australia?

I initially thought of Delta Skymiles as their miles don't expire, but it appears that they have terminated their partnerships with CZ. Same goes for Flying Blue - seems that we are currently unable to earn Flying Blue miles on CZ flights.

Am I better off just crediting them to CZ's own SkyPearl, or perhaps to Avios / AAdvantage?

Thanks
 
I credit to AA. Earn is only one aspect, burn on AA is still good especially transcon QF
