What might be interesting is if an alliance flew into DXB on one side and another partner flew out on the other
I was thinking a long the same lines. Air India would be Air Canada's best partner in DXB since most of the traffic is from there. I wonder how many Indian cities they connect directly from Dubai at the moment? What's to say they can't add additional cities as well? There is actually so much potential for *A airlines at DXB if you ask me. Now just imagine if United, Lufthansa Group, Ethiopian, SAA, Singapore, Thai, ANA, Air China, Asiana, Egyptian, Royal Jordanian, Tukish, etc, etc all joined forces to there full potential. It wouldn't be a pretty picture. They would all reap the benefits of the spectacular infrastructer/Concourse D.
