doc thanks for link!
Very interesting news that Continental, Northwest and Delta are forming a frequent flier alliance starting June 18!
However, to avoid confusion, we should probably rename the forum "Continental/Northwest/Delta alliance"
"Wings" appears to have never existed and certainly does not exist now. KLM (and all other non-US carriers) have been expressly excluded from this newly forming alliance.</font>
Actually, if you do a search on Yahoo for "wings alliance" you'll find it does exist now. It may have taken awhile to get going but seems to be well on the way. Specifically listing the airlines, rather than the name of the alliance would mean it would have to be edited everytime another airline joined.
