I am a long-time *A flyer, earning on UA (and AC before that). So I'm unfamiliar with CZ.

What are the partners for CZ aside from the regular Skyteam partners? I thought that CZ was covered in Asia Miles (the great Asia catch-all), but only MU (China Eastern) is covered.

I don't want to open an account just for 1 flight segment (1250 miles flown, probably in Q-class). Maybe it's just not worth it...
