Yes, and they know it. *A has again set the standards with their alliance-wide upgrade program that has been put in place between most *A carriers.

No way to move miles from one program to another without losing most of its value. That's where SPG points come in really handy.... or the Coupon Connection.

Apart from that:
- DL miles upgrade DL flights + AF flights (if DL-coded) between the US and CDG
- AF miles upgrade AF flights + KL flights + NW flights
- CO miles upgrade CO flights + KL flights + NW flights
- NW miles upgrade NW flights + KL flights + CO flights
