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) as its members. However, it is the first pan-regional LCC alliance. It comprises eight Asia-Pacific airlines: Cebu Pacific, Jeju Air, Nok Air, NokScoot, Scoot, Tigerair, Tigerair Australia and Vanilla Air.
Value Alliance is the fourth largest airline alliance; in terms of passengers, flights, destinations, combined fleet and members; overtaking 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.[6]
