Again, I fly Star too. I'm Star Gold as well as ST EP and OWE. I know all the routes, and on some certain routes Star is the best, others ST is the best. But certainly for most all the places I go to in Africa, ST is either the best choice or the only choice.

Don't forget - Korean Air commences thrice weekly non-stop service to Nairobi from Thursday. Though their promotion campaign has drawn severe criticism in Kenya.

Does AF fly with its own metal to Tallin too? What about KLM from AMS?

Not as far as I know.
KLM has code-shared with OV for AMS-TLL for a while. (I think since 2009?) This article also mentions KL and OV code-sharing on AMS-VNO, but I can't find any evidence of such flights currently.
IIRC, KLM stopped flights to TLL on its own metal at the same time as it started code-sharing with OV.

Absolutely fascinating that the announcement is effective immediately... no advance warning or anything.

QR is looking for an alliance http://www.travelweekly.com.au/trave...thin-12-months
With 2 new members in the region would either ST or QR benefit from a possible entry into Skyteam? It looks more Star or OW teritory though to be honest.
