Canadian's exit
What do you think about the possible exit of Canadian Airlines from the Oneworld family?
I hear different opinions about whether American will "allow" it to happen as they own 25% of Canadian. Apparently, the value of access to the west that Canadian ensures far outweighs the money that American has been pumping in to keep Canadian afloat. It may be a good deal for both Airlines. On the other hand, leaving will require significant penalties to be paid to Oneworld.
