Transatlantic Partner Availability
Does anyone know if NW and CO don't share frequent flier inventory on transatlantic flights where they both serve the destination.
I have both a WorldPerks and OnePass account and I'm trying to go to London in September. Checking availability online I notice that Worldperks only shows NW flights (with the occasional connection through AMS with KLM) and not COs. When I check through OnePass I notice that only CO (and Virgin codeshare) flights show up.
What I'm thinking here is that even though they have an alliance and sell each others inventory. For, destinations they both serve internationally they only provide their own inventory.
Any insights?

Insight:
NWA.com only shows CO availability on codeshare flights. NW and CO do not codeshare to Europe. Therefore, CO availability to Europe cannot be seen at NWA.com.

You must have to look to partners...
From my first initial look @ co.com, I couldn't find any standard award availability across the pond in any class of service for the few random dates over the next year that I plugged in
