SN teaming up with BA / Oneworld?
AS QF announced today, SN will start its own FFP called Privilege.
There is a hint in the information about SN Privilege on the QF website that SN will be cooperating closer with BA (SN/BA codeshares on the BRU-LHR route were already announced last month): the website states some privileges which will be available to "SNBA" ticket holders. Does this mean that SN will join forces with BA and possible enter the Oneworld alliance? If I could redeem my current QF miles for Concorde flights on BA through SN, I might opt for SN Privilege instead of Swiss TC. Then again there have been rumours about Swiss joing OW for a long term, but it still seems far from coming true.

After calling SNBA I learned that SNBA is not looking to become member of Oneworld.
Partners will remain AA & Tap & Finnair. they are also looking to work closely with BA and other carriers. It would be possible to spend miles and earn "bonus"miles on these airlines.
They advised me to decide in october, because they hope to announce some new partners..

Am I correct that TAP only participates in Qualifyer? SN to me leaves a sour taste. Their route structure has been considerably reduced.
