Star Alliance Logo Removal
- Thread starter UPNAWAY
- Start date
On Flyertalk, a US flight attendant posted that employees have been told that US leaves Star Alliance on March 1 and that US won't join Oneworld until about April 1. When I asked if that was a typo, he made it clear that's the news the employee have been given. Odd that US won't be in any alliance for up to a month.

Gives Parker a 31-day window, i.e. excuse, to take US into Chapter 11 and slink out of the deals he made with the unions here????

Been doing it here in PIT for some time now. At least 1 month. Maybe a little more.UPNAWAY said:

Are they doing anything to those poor, tired looking ABs that have the full on Star Paint job? They are a disgrace. Thanks in advance. RR

There are no cynics on this board. None.
A one month gap between programs isn't the end of the world (no pun unintended).
I presume that by March 1 (hopefully sooner), customers will be able to accrue miles in either US or AA when flying either airline. If you will be flying on a OW partner, then just credit those miles to your AA account. Sometime in the coming year, both FF programs will be merged so any PQM's you fly on either program should also be counted.
The main downsides I can see with a 30 day gap with no alliance is:
1.) No redemption on OW partners
2.) No OW benefits when flying on a OW itinerary

3) the Kettles can finally land an aisle or window seat, since the FFs will stay home in March.

As for doing anything to them. They did add Wi-Fi, and I think the contract cleaners might have swept the floor once or twice. But other than that....... Nope.
Maybe now they'll get the update they need.
