THE Competition Commission of Singapore (CCS) has approved a strategic alliance agreement between Tiger Airways and Cebu Pacific, which will allow the two budget carriers to work more closely together for the Singapore and Philippine markets.

Tigerair and Cebu Pacific also have an existing interline partnership and the greenlight from the CCS will now enable them to build upon it. Among the benefits that travellers can look forward to is better connectivity across both carriers' networks.
