Good call, I actually like the way OW works, with most of the members being larger airlines, *A seems to have tried to go the way of quantity. I am looking forward to the new OW airlines to come on board. I agree that OW does need a presence in China but really I think it reflects badly on the other airlines within the alliance when they take on C grade carriers for the sake of having a presence in China. Just out of curiosity is there anything preventing CX from operating flights within mainland China?
