There is a lot of discussions about this in the Star Alliance Forum. My only questions is, where would UA 1Ks land in the proposed new Star Alliance Elite Program ? There seems to be a lot of whining about *Gs not being able to check bags or select seats on the super cheap"Basic" fares at LH or on most any fare at TAP. My thinking, if you want to select seats or check bags, lay off the "Basic" fares. ...and also the other Cardinal Rule: If you want to fly in Premium Cabins, book Premium Cabins !!
