I stated years ago that GlobalPass must form an alliance of good small airlines around the world if it is to survive. In the beginning, the idea of latinPass seemed to make sense but it lacked a global vision (hence its demise- along with lots of bad luck with their chosed partners).

If GP is to survive as a true FF programme, then they need to actively sign up a conglomerate of small independent airlines that otherwise would not bother with a FF system.

Ideas for airlines include:

Air Asia
Air Nauru
Royal Brunei
Continente
Xiamen Airlines
Air Malawi

and so on. essentially, Small airlines around the globe. Together, the resources and coordination of GP would be helpful.
