I think that it will be a miles based scheme.

Special bonuses for certain classes of tickets and such.

Will have a hotel or two in the program. Add in a car rental firm.

Not sure if it'll tie back to any credit card. The Virgin CC is the likely candidate, but still not sure.

As for other airlines? Can only see it joining up with * alliance if it was to join an alliance. As likely as Qantas giving us all free RTW tickets for their birthday!

Still quite possible that one or two longhaul airlines could be part of the scheme. Would pick Virgin Atlantic and Singapore if I had to pick 2, but there are serious political issues with those choices.

Hmmm. Time will tell. Just like Lindsay's 1000 post thread, we will not know until the designated time has arrived...
