Do It!--Bring Alaska Into OneWorld
AS is already FF partners with AA, BA, CX, LA
and QF. Bring them in. Little overlap with AA flights, and they would vastly improve service along the West Coast and into Mexico.

Seems more of a pipe dream (hey mon, wotcha smokin'?) now. ALK (AS+QX corporate entity) is reportedly inking a deal with DAL for marketing and codesharing. So ALK will deal with both what-will-become SkyTeam as well as oneWorld. I wonder when AF and KE will start some arrangement with ALK?

I believe EK also is very interested in the SkyTeam though all the major alliances would like to sign them up. Like JAL they seem to be mulling things over and don't seem to be in any hurry to choose an alliance.
