As anyone who has been following drama in the airline industry knows, there has been a big battle going on between Alaska and Delta in Seattle. Delta wanted to expand in Seattle, and used Alaska to help them. However, when they didn't need them anymore, they kicked them to the curb. As a result, we've…

Great move for AA - I haven't flown US Airways and haven't even flown them since the beginning of the merger. Flying Alaska on the other hand in F was a great experience, friendly crew and overall great service. Would like to fly them a little more in the near future but this is a great step for AA.

@ODB...it happens with more and more frequency. It really is getting annoying. Lucky can you address this issue?

My browser was getting constantly hijacked from this and other Boarding Area sites. I stopped using IE to access entirely and added an Ad Blocker from the Chrome app store for viewing with Chrome. That's done away with about 99% of the incidents. Before that it got to the point where I just wasn't bothering to come to these sites anymore. From previous comments/posts on this issue I don't think that Lucky has control over the ad servers on this site - it's a Boarding Area issue, albeit one they really need to address.

Sitting in the SEA BR as I read this. Great news. The pancake machine now has a clear front so you can watch your pancakes being made!

Perhaps I missed something, but what about Admirals Club members having access to Board Rooms?
Do they have it?

One of the amusing things about the Alaska/Delta situation is the cost of using Alaska miles to book an award ticket on Delta:

One way ticket in Delta international business class = 125,000 Alaska miles

Yikes.

First class on Emirates is only 100,000.

+1 for Alaska in OW but I'm betting that won't happen any day soon.

With AA trying to expand it's Asia flights this could make more sense going forward.

'Now all that remains to be seen is whether the partnership between Alaska and Delta is eventually discontinued.'

Isn't it more a case of WHEN not IF?

@ODB,
You are not alone! I find it practically impossible to read OMAAT nowadays without Adblock... I hope this is something that can be fixed!
