Avek00 question or others that can answer
 
Just a quick question...I am probably not up-to-date on the latest news, but is there a reason for your tagline stating CO is a proud member of the SkyTeam alliance? I thought Aeromexico, Air France, Alitalia, Czech, Delta, and Korean Air are the only members (per their website). I also understand DL-NW-CO are linking up domestically. Are there plans for NW and CO to join up with the DL-led Skyteam (thus explaining your tagline)?

Phase Two of the DL/CO/NW Agreement includes provisions for the entry of CO and NW into the SkyTeam Alliance.

Thank you for choosing Continental Airlines, a proud member of the SkyTeam Alliance.

That way CO can be back with lots of its former partners like Air France, Alitalia, Czech Air...

Quite an alliance:

CO: Twice bankrupt, could return unless liquidity issues are addressed.

NW: Threatening its employees with bankruptcy unless they accept concessions.

DL: The strongest of the bunch, but still posting staggering losses.

It is a requirement for getting a job at CO marketing department to have practiced wilful misrepresentation publicly for at least two years.
