Benefits of
Strategic
Alliance
decreasing ticket
price when linking
cities to each other,
hence increasing
load factor and
reducing trip cost for
both aircraft and
carrier
provide passengers
with varied flight
schedules and wider
choice of take-off
and landing times,
which lead to
reduced travel time
Alliances seek to
improve quality
standards and
passenger services,
and apply minimum
standards at all
stages, including
ticket sales, choice of
destinations,
baggage procedures,
lounges, passenger
travel, passenger
complaints, and
provision of
necessary services

Re fleet
Use only single
type of Air
craft
Able to concentrate
on profit yielding
routes by increasing
the number of fleets
and frequency and
this attracts more
customers because of
the flexibility of
timing of flights. It
also allows the airline
to explore other niche
market such as
Maldives by MAA and
China by PAA.
Reduction of fleet
also means reduction
of cost and hence
reduction in ticket
