Former OnePass Partners

Having read that TAP is dropping out of OnePass, I started to try and recall the countless other airline partners that have dropped out (and sometimes back into OnePass-i.e., Air France). Anyone care to list the airlines?

I'm pretty sure SAS was a partner way back when...

Until a few years ago America West was a partner offering free upgrades to OP Elites. My first class breakfast on EWR-LAS was a plastic cup filled with trail mix poured from a huge box.

Iberia was a OP partner many years ago.

Lineas Aereas Azteca was also a partner until a couple of years ago.

IMHO These guys were notoriously stingy with upgrades when connecting from a CO flight. You had to specifically ask to be put onto the list when you checked in. If not, they'd tell you at the connecting flight that you were SOL and they'd then try to sell the upgrades...

I earned CO miles on AF metal before they dropped out of the program. After that experience I'm loathe to try and earn more now that they are back.

Regarding TAP, does this spell the end of the seemingly little-noticed CO codeshare flights on TAP?

SAS was a long time partner, one of the first I think. I recall Aer Lingus being a partner for a while too. Air Canada was a partner for a while. Air France was a partner, then there was a split, now they're back with ST. I also think that BMI may have been a partner in the 90's.
