One RTW is enough to get *G status. If go the comp route then some FFPs are more likely to do it than others. SQ for example - forget about it wont happen. UA will be glad to comp you to Prem Exec status (*G but not their highest status).
There are definite advantages in having status on more than one alliance (assuming you travel enough to get decent level of status - one high tier is still better than two mid tiers). Gives so much more flexibility.
Miles and More may be a good choice for you. Only need to qualify every second year - so you can still concentrate mainly on OW. Earns 200% miles in business and 300% in first, plus status bonus on certain airlines. Very generous fixed mileage within europe.
