Which Skyteam Airline for US domestic ?
Flying LAS - TPA in Y.

Two options based on costs : -

CO via IAH or DL via ATL.

Which one is prefered ?

What are chances of upgrade with KL Plat card (ST E+) ?
NW is not an option due to high price.

Tks

Chance of upgrade on DL are close to nil.

Chance of upgrade on CO is somewhat higher, if you come across a clueless CO agent who does not know that KL Plats are not entitled to upgrades on CO.

I would choose CO, because like transfer at IAH than ATL.

I like Delta and ATL. One thing to think about is that delta flys widebodies (not all flights but several) on all legs of this city pair.

I second the choice of DL. I prefer the ATL hub and the wide-bodies DL flies from LAS.

CO and NWA are both good. CO has better seats and a younger fleet, but is typically geared toward East Coast travel.
