The Name
I have posted some of this information before on sone of the other boards, scattered among some posts, so please forgive me (but I felt sorry for this near-empty forum, which did not exist at the time I originally posted).

My wife & I were surveyed back in November 1999 at the Crown Room Club in Portland regarding the name of this alliance ( We were told "Delta - Air France - Aeromexico - Korean Air Lines" ). We were given ten names to rate on a number of different critera (sounds modern, sound friendly, etc.). Here are some of the names (it is fair to say that we did not give a lot of high marks):

Voyager
Concorde
SkyTeam
Harmony
Rainbow
Your Planet
Freedom

Since no announcement of the name has been made in the 2 months since, maybe they went back to the drawing board.

Some discussion of these names can be found in this thread: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum...ML/000227.html
