According to this article on FrequentBusinessTraveler.com, US Airways is
set to leave the Star Alliance on March 1 and join the oneworld
alliance one month later. What does this mean? If you are a Dividend

US Airways flights but will of course lose access to Star Alliance
flights (primarily Air Canada for us Canadians) and Aeroplan members or
members of other Star Alliance airlines well if you had US Airways travel
planned in the next few months now is the time to redeem for those
flights and vice versa for Dividend Miles members looking to redeem on
Air Canada or other Star Alliance airlines
We have not been heeding our own advice and totally forgot to enter week 4 of Shangri-La’s Golden Circle 3rd Annivesary contest which means we’ll only come out with 1,000 free points instead of 1,200 (that 1,000 points is still enough for a free night at select hotels) So here is early notice, don’t forget to enter week 5 of the 6 week contest!
