Hmm, I see at least two posts saying that VS should consider going to Sky Team when VS has no prior history with them except for a past partnership with DL, which terminated in 2006. VS has partnerships with at least 6 *A carriers. So what would be the purpose of going to ST?

ST dominates AMS and CDG. OW has a stranglehold at LHR. Does *A dominate FRA? Is the purpose of joining a *A or ST partnership one of getting either group to become a larger player at LHR?
