Affiliates[edit]

Just wondering what the reason is that the article doesn't list affiliates such as Delta Connection or KLM CityHopper? The Oneworld and Star Alliance pages list all of those alliance's affiliates such as American Eagle and United Express, for example. Is there a reason the SkyTeam article is the only one of the 3 major alliances to not do this? (VenFlyer98 (talk) 15:23, 10 March 2022 (UTC))[reply]

They are listed. In fact, there is a column to that specific purpose. But reliable sources supporting each entry are mandatory.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 20:30, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Contrary to what you said, affiliates such as Delta Connection and KLM CityHopper are not listed. As stated, the Star and Oneworld articles list the affiliates in the affiliate column, but the affiliate column here is nearly empty (aside from Shanghai Airlines). I understand needing sources of course, the difficult thing is unlike Star and Oneworld that have a page listing affiliates, SkyTeam doesn't have one. Regionals like Delta Connection are affiliates so they should be listed (again see pages for other alliances) there's just no sources, that's all. Understandable if they should stay off since there's no sources. VenFlyer98 (talk) 09:03, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that unsourced content exists in other articles is not an endorsement for introducing unsourced material here.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 14:24, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Air Europa[edit]

Air Europa's acquisition by IAG had been cancelled, so it's announced departure from skyteam is presumably also off the table? 2001:1C00:251A:F900:98ED:7C64:C916:4775 (talk) 11:49, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ITA Airways and its status with SkyTeam[edit]

I did some research that Lufthansa has already bought 41% of ITA Airways in May 2023 and announced ITA Airways may leave SkyTeam and join Star Alliance, so the information should be added into the 2015-Stability page. Loveheart547 (talk) 02:52, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Do you have a source for the possible move to Star Alliance?RegentsPark (comment) 14:56, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I added the statement with a source cited. Loveheart547 (talk) 21:43, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
