I'm talking big picture, not Star Alliance.
There isn't a day that goes by in the FT universe, where someone somewhere isn't ranting about a bad experience on a particular airline.
Otherwise....I am one of many on this forum who fly to Asia and SE Asia regularly. I fly AC when they deliver what I need on all levels. I also fly CX as they can deliver what AC cannot.
If my goal was to be a MM, I would pay the higher fares and put up with other things and fly AC.
That was my point.
I do not fly most of those *A partners and I avoid some of them at all cost.
My money. My choice.
