Oneworld (CRS: *O) is one of the world's three largest global airline alliances and its central management team, Oneworld Management Company Ltd, is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[6][7] Oneworld was founded in 1999 by American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Canadian Airlines and Qantas. Oneworld's slogan is "oneworld revolves around you" and its members share one vision: "to generate more value for customers, shareholders and employees than any airline can achieve by itself". Since late 2002, Oneworld member airlines have developed common specifications across their engineering and maintenance activities, reducing costs through bulk buying and parts sharing.[8]:12
The alliance has a Managing Partner, reporting to the alliance board, Oneworld Governing Board, which is made up of the chief executives of each of the member airlines. Chairman of the board rotates on an annual basis among the alliance members' chief executives. Reporting to the Managing Partner are Vice-Presidents for Commercial, IT and Cost Reduction, Airports and Customer Experience, Membership and Operations, and Corporate Communications.[8]:7[9]
Oneworld had the biggest expansion in its history in 2007 when Japan Airlines, Malév Hungarian Airlines and Royal Jordanian joined as full members, while Cathay Pacific's subsidiary Dragonair, four subsidiaries of Japan Airlines and two subsidiaries of LAN Airlines joined as affiliate members.[10][11] The alliance is set to expand further with Mexicana and Russia's S7 Airlines joining in October 2009 and 2010, respectively.[12][13] In 2009, Oneworld celebrated its 10th anniversary with the introduction of a new standard Oneworld livery, that all of its member airlines adopted on a proportion of their fleets and a special version of its logo.[14]
As of 29 May 2009, Oneworld, with its members elect, reached over 720 destinations in over 140 countries. It operates over 8,300 daily flights, carrying nearly 330 million passengers on a combined fleet of over 2,200 aircraft.[3] It is the only alliance that has a full network in Australia with Qantas and the only alliance with a member based in South America and Asia's Middle East with LAN Airlines and Royal Jordanian, respectively.[8]:1 The 2008–2009 global financial crisis and the 2009 swine flu pandemic have hit the airline industry particularly hard, benefits generated through Oneworld enabled the member airlines to maintain their position as the grouping with the best financial track record. Based on latest 2008 full year results from members of all three alliances, Oneworld members combined lost US$1.7 billion net, against total losses by Star Alliance of US$8.8 billion and SkyTeam's collective US$13.3 billion deficit.[15]
Oneworld was voted the world's Best Airline Alliance in the 2002, 2004 and 2005 Business Traveller Awards[16][17][18] and named the World's Leading Airline Alliance for the sixth consecutive year at the 2008 World Travel Awards.[19]

[edit] 10th anniversary
To increase awareness of the 10-member alliance and as part of the celebration of Oneworld's 10th anniversary in 2009, all the alliance's member airlines decorated a proportion of their aircraft fleets in a standard Oneworld livery - around 40 aircraft in total, mainly types that fly on international routes.
The new livery features the Oneworld name in large letters that are almost two metres tall, and the Oneworld logo along the side of their fuselage, against a white or a polished metal background. The name of the operating member airline will be placed in smaller lettering in a standard position at the front of the aircraft below the Oneworld name and logo. Each member airline will also retain its regular tailfin design.
In addition, Oneworld has unveiled a special version of its logo, featuring the text "10 years" printed behind the word Oneworld as a watermark on its round blue orb.[14]

[edit] Customer service initiatives
On 21 April 2005, Oneworld became the first airline alliance to enable its customers to fly throughout its members' network on electronic tickets (E-Tickets) only, with the completion of interline e-ticketing links between all its member airlines. E-Ticket made checking-in quicker and smoother as all the information is stored electronically, it cannot be lost or risk being stolen like a traditional paper ticket. In addition, E-Ticket enabled customers to access new automated features, like self-service, mobile or internet check-in.[27]
On 16 September 2008, Oneworld and Lonely Planet jointly introduced Oneworld Travel Stations, interactive installations to offer guides, tips and advice on where to sleep, what to eat, where to relax, what to see and how to do business on some of the world's leading destinations, which are served by Oneworld member airlines. Any information, language guides and audio casts can be downloaded to the traveller's smartphones, laptops or other devices. In addition, Oneworld introduced Oneworld Charging Stations, freestanding units to enable travellers to recharge their laptops, mobile phones, PDAs and other similar devices for a power top-up. Both Oneworld Travel Stations and Oneworld Charging Stations are available free of charge at selected airports in Europe. Oneworld Travel Stations won an Innovation Award 2008 from the Netherlands' Reisrevue travel trade magazine and a Silver Winner for Best Use of Technology from the US magazine Event Marketer.[28][29][30]
On 3 June 2009, Oneworld introduced Oneworld Travel Library, a library service with some of the world's most popular books in audio format featuring approximately 40 titles, including fiction, business, society and travel, available in English, Dutch, French, and Italian. The audio books can be downloaded free of charge to the traveller's smartphones, laptops or other devices. Oneworld Travel Library is available at selected airports in Europe.[31]

The airline's primary sponsor is Iberia, assisted by American Airlines. Mexicana currently enjoys bilateral relationships such as codesharing and frequent flyer programs, with Oneworld members American Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Iberia, Japan Airlines and Qantas. The joining process is expected to take between 12 and 18 months.[12] The airline is a former member of Star Alliance, which left in 2004 after 4 years of membership due to the codeshare agreement signed with American Airlines, instead of United Airlines (a Star Alliance member).

[edit] Possible future members
Oneworld has expressed its desire to recruit new member airlines[67] while several airlines have expressed their intention to join the alliance.
China Eastern Airlines – The airline has been courted by Oneworld and currently codeshares with American Airlines, Japan Airlines and Qantas.[68][69] However, Air France and China Southern Airlines are lobbying at the airline to join SkyTeam.[70] The Chinese government is considering a merger with Shanghai Airlines, which is already a member of Star Alliance.[71]
Grand China Airlines – The airline was previously known as Hainan Airlines[72] has expressed interest in joining Oneworld[70][73] and has codeshare agreements with Japan Airlines and Malév Hungarian Airlines.
Jet Airways – The airline currently has extensive codeshare agreements with Oneworld member airlines, particularly with American Airlines. Jet Airways officials met with Oneworld executives to discuss a possible membership in June 2009.[74]
Kingfisher Airlines – On 1 June 2009, Kingfisher joined Oneworld's Global Explorer round-the-world ticket product to enable customers access to the domestic network in India.[75] Oneworld Managing Partner, John McCulloch, mentioned that they have been in discussion with Kingfisher about possible membership into the alliance.[74]
WestJet – On 4 November 2008, WestJet agreed with the Oneworld alliance to tailor joint corporate agreements and discounts for Canada-based companies. Seven Oneworld members are working with WestJet on the corporate-specific offering, the carriers said. While the announcement does not include codeshare agreements or broader integration, Oneworld and WestJet said they would consider linking up further.[76] Air France-KLM, part of SkyTeam, on 5 February 2009, signed a Memorandum of Understanding to provide relationship between these three airlines, and this would include codesharing services.[77] In addition, Southwest Airlines, a low-cost carrier, has executed the definitive agreement with WestJet to commence code-sharing capability in late 2009.[78]
