Nick Art - Thanks for the information. This is very useful.

I am one of those rare folks who is happy with the switch, as I have high status in the SkyTeam. In May I bought first class tickets on SAS and joined EuroBonus as it was the best flight. Does anyone know how these Eurobonus miles will transfer to my SkyMiles account?

Personally, if Lufthansa were to switch to SkyTeam my world would then be perfect. But, everyone has a different situation.

Happy flying!

PS - I will confess my favorite lounges are not SkyTeam
1- Turkish Airlines Istanbul - Star
2- United Chicago - Star
3 - Lufthansa Frankfurt - Star
4 - Delta Atlanta - Sky Team
