Angry Wake Up Oneworld

wake up BA!! it's ok to aim for quality and depth over breadth -- but the integration between *A carriers is getting ever better and oneworld's has just stalled. every one of my business acquaintances goes for *A because they have a larger network -- that's what seems to count. With the AirFrance/KLM merger, Skyteam will expand too, and oneworld will be the smallest -- and thus least attractive of the alliances, especially since inter-airline operability is not really progressing beyond the BA/CX/QF household which existed before. Now SWISS is gone. oneworld needs some new members FAST: China Eastern, Japan Airlines, another European. WAKE UP BA! It's not all about Heathrow and the Atlantic.
