SkyTeam Alliance

From Erik...
As far as I can tell, airline alliances are important to frequent travelers because frequent fliers accumulate miles and sooner or later they spend those miles. In addition, frequent travelers enjoy special airport lounges and in some cases faster security. Flying with airlines within the same alliance provides more options to spend miles in terms of destinations, priority routes and on board accommodations.  
Overview​
​SkyTeam is the global airline alliance with 20 member airlines working together to offer seamless travel on an extensive global network.  From top hubs around the world, SkyTeam members provide reliable and comfortable journeys to over 1,050 destinations. SkyTeam customers can unwind in 636 lounges as they travel, earn and redeem Frequent Flyer Miles. SkyTeam Elite Plus customers are eligible for SkyPriority services. The 20 members are:
  • Aeroflot
  • Aerolíneas Argentinas
  • Aeroméxico
  • Air Europa
  • Air France
  • Alitalia
  • China Airlines
