What do you mean by "airline allegiance". I love Alaska, and I've been using Starwood points to transfer into Alaska when I fly. But I'm not any kind of upgraded member of Alaska. Does that mean I have an allegiance to Alaska?
I really wish CSR had Alaska as a travel partner. It would be a no-brainer for me.
