Fetchem, I don`t see your point.....
Right now a KL RW has two ways of spending money on flights to and within the US.He is getting pretty good treatment on NW, but nothing on CO....
On the other side, KL treats CO and NW elites pretty much the same !!
The important point right now seems to be, that CO will not get much revenue from KL`s best customers, cause they donīt offer a comparable product.
