Why would Star Alliance need its site to be hosted by some internet domain registration company??? Star-Alliance.co.uk has no connection whatsoever to Star Alliance, I am afraid, and this site was set for a purpose that eludes me at this time but will certainly become clear at some point.

As I tell my students, the internet is a great resource IF one applies a modicum of discriminating personal judgement in analyzing the garbage found on it.

I beg to differ.

Firstly the website claims to be independant so it is not a Star Alliance website. It is obviously a hobby website.

Have a look at the following post...

You will note that customer relations at Singeapore Airlines seem to recognise the importance of the website.

Then look at this post

I think a reappraisal of this website is in order.
