80 TP? ... 140 TP? ... |

IG with QR's involvement is another one that could be interesting and Central Europe is lacking since AB died.

Interesting possibilities for TP earnings. There definitely won't be any short haul + 80 TP routes though. SH+ is only for BA flights, the excpetion being UK-HEL routes which includes AY UK-HEL flights due to the JBA between BA and AY.
Nor have I ever seen J fares so low that I've thought "shame I can't earn TPs for it" |

Speculation in the comments at OMAAT about Phillipines Airlines, too - fairly close links to CX already. Network wise, I have to think that RAM plug the biggest gap on the map though. |

Joining OW might come with codeshare agreements with the likes of BA though, which could open the door to SH+. Granted, a few layered assumptions in that one.

Okay, let's discuss a rumour saying Uzbekistan Airlines and Bangkok Airways are joining too - or SQ jumping ship to oneworld. Point is, this is based on rumours and the adoption process for a new member will take time - likely a year or more for integration. So what is the point of taking a guess on TP achievement levels based on pure guesswork now?

I wouldn’t be in a rush to use RAM regardless of TP’s! An NGO I do volunteer work with in Africa forbid their staff/volunteers using them (the only airline with such a restriction) as they’ve had so many issues with lost/delayed bags, poorly handled missed connections etc. |

OW must be really out of their mind to accept RAM. Nice flights, but only in the air. When on the ground - chaos everywhere. Delayed flights, cancelled flights without any staff to help all night long in domestic area...
This is a great way to sellout their reputation. |

Then again, the LH group pretty much have central Continental Europe sewn up, with prices to match. |

The forum should instead focus on important things such as the viscosity of the hollandaise in the CCR (the OP is classic BAFT, enjoy!)

The actual story here is that Alaska Airlines is looking at oneworld connect membership, the second tier of oneworld membership, which looks like a nearly full alliance relationship with any sponsoring airlines (and I would hazard that BA would be happy to sponsor), ....

And that transition out is announced to last for a full year, so anything into oneworld on that front is unlikely to happen anytime soon despite AA increasing their investments in CZ.

Let's discuss the actual rumour, based on the information we have:
- There is a confirmed press conference at oneworld headquarters announcing the addition of a full member. - The CEO of Royal Air Moroc has confirmed he will be in NYC at the came time as the press conference - Royal Air Maroc already codeshare with IB and QR and already uses the avios programme - Anecdotal but the addition of RAM would also be the first African carrier in oneworld - China Southern have announced their departure of Skyteam but as previously mentioned this will be a long process and if they were to join oneworld it would be a quite lead in time so potentially the press conference in week is a bit premature. |
It's Flybe. Since they lost Loganair they're desperate to increase their code share network...

EZY as OneWorld Connect. With retrospective TP and miles. Gold here I come...… https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/images/icons/icon10.gif
