Sorry for being sort of off-topic here in the DL forum but my curiosity is peaked.

If so, they’ll unfortunately be a welcome partner to DL.

Last time I flew them, they had 3 classes of service on 777. It was SVO-JFK. 767 I think has 3 classes too.
Most times since then I flew DL#30 or AF.
Unfortunately, SU between US-Russia is one thing... SU within Russia is a nightmare. Bring some ear plugs!!!

As with most airlines, Aeroflot has three classes of service: first class, business class and economy class.

don't see their quality as good enough for ST
I flew SU in August on a flight from SVO-WAW. The Tupolev plane looked like it was built in the late 50s. Maybe it was a little newer than that, but it was certainly 30 years old. The unoccupied seats flopped forward when the plane landed, the wooden toilet seats badly needed paint, and the carpet was missing in places. I wasn't really concerned for safety, but one of my travelling companions questioned my judgment in booking the flight.
Maybe some long-haul/short-haul consistency is in order before they join ST?
