One world is already weak
If One World loses Cathay=They are DONE.
AA has few routes to SE Asia and India. BA's products are poor and availability for award seats is pitiful. QF is in melt down mode and booted BA as a partner to go with Emirates. If Cathay goes how is AA going to get passengers to HKG? Through Tokyo?
From an Award seat perspective......United has far more availability in Europe with the *A. However F&J seat availability to the USA is far easier to book on Cathay with One World.
This would make things interesting for sure. Not good for anyone.....
