Japan Airlines
(JAL) has decided to apply to join the multilateral airline alliance, oneworld. Launched in February 1999, oneworld offers a
global network provided by eight major airlines, namely American Airlines, British Airways, Qantas, Cathay Pacific, Iberia, LAN, Finnair and Aer Lingus, plus
their 12 affiliates.
Presently, oneworld has a network linking around 600 cities in 135 countries, and by joining the alliance JAL’s network would further expand.
With a worldwide network which serves 206 airports in 34 countries and territories, and strong market presence particularly in Japan and Asia, JAL believes it would be
able to significantly enhance the competitiveness of oneworld when it finally becomes a member of the alliance.
