The OnePass scheme is really excellent if you are a regular business traveller. They have many partners so you can earn miles all over Europe as well as America. The airline is my personal favourite and I build up miles with hotel stays and car hire.

Advantages: Frequent Flyer Bonus Miles Disadvantages: Changes to the Elite Rules Next Year...
I started flying with Continental only last year, and on my first trip to the States I met a lady who is now my fiancee, so I have been travelling across the Atlantic quite a bit! I don't know why I joined this scheme, but I am glad I did! I am amazed at how quickly the miles build up thanks to their very generous Elite scheme - after just 5 Transatlantic flights (that is flights, not round trips!) you will reach Silver Elite status, giving a 50% ... ...earns 10,000 miles (or 11,000 if you book online). Another 5 Transatlantic legs sees Gold Elite status and 100% bonus miles, then Platinim Elite and 125% bonus... Also with Elite status comes the end of queues at airports - check in at the first class desk and go straight onto the aircraft when they open first class. The Elite qualifications are going to change next year (2004), so these benefits might be harder to reach.

Advantages: Very easy way to earn air miles Disadvantages: Limited Airlines in the UK
I've now been a member of Continentals onepass scheme for around 4 years.
Firstly, earning miles: This used to be limited in the UK, unless you flew with continental over the the states or elsewhere. However, they now use Northwest, Air France, and KLM. As both Air France and KLM have Hubs in Europe, you can fly to almost anywhere in the world now, and earn miles. The miles are credited relativly quickly, and is now very easy to check online.
Redeeming ... ...continentals web site, which has made things very easy. whilst heavily US orientated, it's still okay for UK users.
How easy is it to earn miles? With work, I recently flew Business class to Kuala Lumpur with KLM, and a return flight earnt me 38,000 points. I only need 40,000 points for an off peak return to north america!
I can also transfer my amex points to this scheme as well.
It's a good scheme, and easy to earn points. I would recommend ...

Advantages: Points can be transferred to Hilton Honours programme. Disadvantages: Takes quite a lot of flying to earn a free return ticket
...earn them it will be one hell of a slogg before the end of the year on average at least 2 flights to south America or 5 to New York to get just one free return.
Collect the points and hope that they come in handy some day.
Or just transfer them to Hilton Honours programme and save up for something big on just one reward programme.
The conversion rate is 5,000 One pass miles to 10,000 Hilton Honours points. ...
