Value Alliance was an airline alliance formed in May 2016. The alliance was the second commercial airline alliance that comprised low-cost carriers, after the U-FLY Alliance. It is the first pan-regional LCC alliance. It comprises five, originally eight, Asia-Pacific airlines: Cebu Pacific, Cebgo, Jeju Air, Nok Air and Scoot.

Contents

Value Alliance was the fourth-largest airline alliance in terms of passengers, flights, destinations, combined fleet and members, ahead of U-FLY Alliance and Vanilla Alliance. [3]

According to the Wayback Machine, the Value Alliance website was found to have been shut down since some day between May 19 and August 15, 2023, with a message saying "This website is no longer supported. If you have questions regarding your booking or flight, please connect with the airline of your booking." and no further news since then, [4] so Value Alliance is considered inactive.

History

The Value Alliance was established by eight airlines in the Asia-Pacific region on 16 May 2016. [5] 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. [6] The combined carriers collectively serve more than 160 destinations, primarily in the Asia-Pacific region, [6] with a total fleet of 176 aircraft and an annual passenger total of 47 million in 2015.
