Oct 25, 2005 (newstodate): Japan Airlines has decided to seek membership of the oneworld Alliance.
In terms of group revenues, it would become the largest member of oneworld but has so far been one of only 20 major IATA member airlines to remain outside any of the three airline alliances.
oneworld currently comprises Qantas, Iberia, Cathay Pacific, LAN, Finnair and Aer Lingus, besides American Airlines and British Airways, plus their 12 affiliates.
Stepping unto the red carpet is Royal Jordanian to be admitted from around the turn of 2006/2007, while Malev signed a MoU in May 2005 as its first step towards an invitation to join the alliance.
