Public feedback on Tiger Air-CebuPac strategic alliance urged

Common routes could soon emerge.

The Competition Commission of Singapore is requesting public feedback on a newly-forged alliance between Tiger Air and Cebu Pacific, a budget carrier from the Philippines.

Tiger Air has entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Cebu Pacific. This agreement is part of its acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of SEAir from Roar II, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tigerair Holdings.

This agreement will allow the airlines to jointly operate common routes between Singapore and the Philippines, and other markets that may emerge.

The agreement also lets the airlines jointly sell and market common and non-common routes using codeshare or interline arrangements.

In a statement released Friday, the CCS urged the public to provide their comments on the agreement.

According to the CCS, “The consultation documents can be accessed and downloaded from the CCS website at www.ccs.gov.sg under the section ‘Public Register and Consultation’. The closing date for submissions is on or before 10 June 2014. If the submission/correspondence contains confidential information, please also provide CCS with a non-confidential version of the submission or correspondence.”
