Who is the new member of oneworld?

The newest member of oneworld is Alaska Airlines.



As of early 2026, the newest full member of the oneworld alliance is Hawaiian Airlines, which is scheduled to officially join the roster on April 22, 2026. This membership follows the high-value merger between Hawaiian and Alaska Airlines, which is already a oneworld member. The two airlines will eventually share a single passenger service system and the "AS" flight code, providing a major boost to "Round the World" fare options and Asia-Pacific connectivity. Additionally, Fiji Airways was promoted from a "oneworld Connect" partner to a full-fledged member in 2025, further strengthening the alliance's South Pacific footprint. For the 2026 traveler, this means that "Emerald" and "Sapphire" status holders will enjoy high-value perks like lounge access and "Priority Boarding" on flights to Honolulu and Nadi, making oneworld the undisputed "Island Hopper" champion of the major global airline alliances.
