Looks like I am flying CO next week rather than AA.

I know they are looking to join Star Alliance. Can I still use my NW or DL FF number and get miles while flying CO? American is the only airline I have status on.

And what tricks, if any, can I use to make my flights on CO smoother as a non status person? I take it I can try and do OLCI and get exit row seats at the 24-hour mark?? I'd really appreciate any tips/suggestions.

Thank you so much in advance.
