Mods, would you consider changing the title of this thread to reflect that this is not an "AusBT rumour" per se?
It's a rumour from a forum on the Australian Business Traveller site but I'd suggest that pretty much everybody considers AusBT as being the news website, the publisher of articles which are researched and considered and not driven by rumour. We don't do just 'rumours' in our reporting.
Perhaps the title could be tweaked to simply be "Aegean leaving star alliance? [old rumour]" ?
Thanks in advance for the consideration...
