Jetstar Group and Tigerair Taiwan have announced a new technology alliance.

The new booking solution, made possible by technology company and flight search engine Dohop, allows passengers to book new connections and flights on both Jetstar and Tigerair Taiwan through its respective branded platforms, accessible through the airlines’ websites.

Jetstar’s head of alliances & regional general manager of Southeast Asia Clive Ashmore Butler said: “This new partnership enables Jetstar to offer our customers more destinations, more frequency and better connectivity, by combining our expanding network with Tigerair Taiwan’s, all at the click of a button, fulfilling our vision to make more travel affordable.

“The launch of Jetstar Connect on jetstar.com will provide more options for customers to access Jetstar’s great value fares and an expanded number of low-cost connections. For Jetstar’s customers in Japan, this partnership opens up new services to incredible destinations such as Cebu, Kaohsiung and Macau, while Jetstar’s customers in South East Asia will enjoy more options when travelling to Japan and Korea.

“We are looking forward to developing the Jetstar Connect platform further and welcoming new LCC partnerships in the future.”
