Tigerair Australia, Scoot and other budget carriers team up for alliance
Eight budget airlines have formed a new alliance designed to help them better compete against pan-Asian LCC groups like Jetstar, AirAsia and Lion Air. The new Value Alliance, launched Monday, will allow customers to view, select and book the best-available fares directly from the website of all airline members to create itineraries throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Tigerair Singapore, Thailand's Nok Air and NokScoot, Japan's Vanilla Air, Korea's Jeju Air and Cebu Pacific of the Philippines are founding members alongside Tigerair Australia and Scoot. The carriers collectively serve more than 160 destinations, primarily in the Asia-Pacific region. "We can leverage each other's brand recognition in our respective home markets and leverage each other's distribution in our home markets," Scoot CE Campbell Wilson said. <br/>
