The number of seats available to destinations that you actually want to visit can only be described as tiny. The SkyTeam alliance can best be described as a joke with AF, AL and KL seeming to want out so badly that they will tick off DL customers to no end by having virtually no seats available in premium classes, even a year out.

UA on the other hand has seemed to corner the market on trying to foist off bad destinations to people that have no choice because of expiring miles or schedules that can not be changed.

Any other nominations?

Besides that fact that you are trolling, I will address two of your comments:

1) I would not fault a phone rep for not knowing the difference between Manchester NH or MAN UK. Most americans couldn't tell you the difference. How is it that the phone rep was in Mexico city? Delta en Espanol?

2) I recently redeemed a Round-the-World award in business on SkyTeam through Delta for this Autumn. Lots of availibility on AF, KL, KE, less on the American carriers.

3) Can't comment on UA.
