GA will join SkyTeam about the time that MH joins OW. That should pick up a lot of the slack in the loss of the MH partnership, further enhanced by being able to earn MQM on GA (once in SkyTeam) but not MH. The lack of a TPAC flight at the moment is the downside to GA, but with 10 77W on order (the first being delivered this year) and 21 A330 on order (11 of them just ordered this month), expansion is in the plans for them. I expect we'll see GA back in North America before too long.
