I wonder why everyone is looking so closely at OW. Maybe it is because AA/BA would have a much more dominating market position between London and some US cities (NYC) than LH/UA from FRA or AF/DL/CO from Paris? But I wonder whether they really have a market share higher than that of other alliances in similar situations.
