Experience with SkyTeam

[bobl]

I am a member of three airlines in the Sky Team Alliance. Other than the ability to accrue miles in one account while flying on Sky Team member airlines, I am not aware of other substantial benefits for high volume travelers. Does anyone know if elite status on one Sky Team Member Airline has the same benefit relative to upgrades and bonuse miles if flying on another member of the Sky Team Family?

No, each airline has its own set rules and regulations reguarding upgrade status, most of the time airlines will look out for their own elite members then those of partner airlines.
