Value Alliance is an airline alliance formed in May 2016. It is the world's second alliance (after the U-FLY Alliance ) to consist only of low-cost carriers (LCCs). However, it is the first pan-regional LCC alliance. It comprises five (originally nine) Asia-Pacific airlines: Cebu Pacific , Cebgo , Jeju Air , Nok Air and Scoot .
Value Alliance is the fourth-largest airline alliance in terms of passengers, flights, destinations, combined fleet and members, ahead of U-FLY Alliance and Vanilla Alliance . [3]
History
The Value Alliance was established by eight airlines in the Asia-Pacific region on 16 May 2016. [4] The alliance allows passengers to book flights with all of the eight carriers through each partner website, to create itineraries across the region through a single booking. [5] The combined carriers collectively serve more than 160 destinations, primarily in the Asia-Pacific region, [5] with a total fleet of 176 aircraft and an annual passenger total of 47 million in 2015.
