THE Oneworld airline alliance is expecting to implement a general points upgrade program across all of its members by the end of the year, according to Chief Executive Officer Rob Gurney.
Speaking to the Cranky Flier website last week, Gurney confirmed the alliance-wide plan which would replace the existing bilateral upgrade arrangements which are only available between individual member carriers.
Oneworld continues to work on the unified platform to allow the change, among other integrations to simplify cross-alliance check-in and flight information updates.
The update came as Alaska Airlines formally signed its Memorandum of Understanding to join Oneworld by the end of the year (TD 14 Feb), making it officially a member-elect.
