It has been over a year since I last updated this post, especially with OneWorld, so I thought it was due for an update as there were several changes to update.

Personal Airline Alliance Portfolio

As usual, here is a quick recap of my personal portfolio, which has not changed much. I was expecting to shake things up due to the Aeroplan and Air Canada break up, but that does not seem to be happening anymore.

Non-alliance: Southwest Airlines (Rapid Rewards), Porter Airlines (VIPorter)

• I was going to increase my usage of Porter Airlines has there been an Aeroplan merger, but now that seems unlikely.

Oneworld: British Airways (Executive Club) and American Airlines (AAdvantage)

• Note that whenever I fly with WestJet, I bank my miles directly with American Airlines instead.

Star Alliance: Air Canada (Aeroplan)

• Looks like Aeroplan will remain my primary Star Alliance program for a while longer. I really hoped that they would have split off from Air Canada. Either way, anything can happen from now until June 2020, but I am not holding my breath.

SkyTeam: Delta Air Lines (Delta SkyMiles)

• The reason I choose Delta SkyMiles is because their miles never expire, so I can take my time to accumulate for a reward redemption without worrying about activity.

Vanilla Alliance: None

• Still not on my current radar yet, but Air Mauritius would be my pick if it comes to it.

U-Fly Alliance and Value Alliance: None

• I do not have any interest in the other two minor airlines at this time.
