SkyTeam adds three new associate airlines
Today, September 4, 2007, SkyTeam welcomed the first ever SkyTeam Associates: Air Europa, Copa Airlines and Kenya Airways. SkyTeam Associates participate in the frequent flyer mileage program (accrual and redemption) and enjoy airport lounge reciprocity with all SkyTeam members. All other policies and procedures follow standard interline guidelines. There are currently no codeshare agreements with SkyTeam Associates.
SkyTeam Associate Sponsor FFP Program
Air Europa (Spain) Air France Flying Blue
Copa Airlines (Panama) Continental OnePass

I believe this was covered in an earlier thread. I wish SkyTeam would focus as much energy on South Asia and Australia as they do on these puddlejumpers

I don't know what is situation about DL Skymiles program will even earned MQM. I don't have anything a specific information about MQM. You will probably find out later which DL will join codeshare with CM, KQ and Air Europa. Which one airline code for Air Europa is that?

The text of my email was dated September 1st (just go it today though)....the big question mark here is that someone forgot to add the Airlines under the provided link within the email....there is no mention of the airlines within the SkyTeam section of Delta.com.
Someone should update the Web department when additions like this are made.
At least add the logo's somewhere.
