AirAsia MOVE (MOVE) has secured accreditation from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in the Philippines, strengthening its airline partnerships and expanding flight options for travelers flying to and from the country.
The accreditation allows MOVE to deepen its ties with airlines and provide travelers access to a wider range of routes. The platform currently offers flights from more than 700 airlines to 3,000 destinations worldwide, including direct partnerships with Etihad Airways, ANA and VietJet.
MOVE also offers more than one million hotels, along with live events, attractions and other travel services through its platform.
“Our IATA accreditation is already opening new doors for MOVE. Within the first few weeks, around 30 international airlines serving routes to and from the Philippines have granted us ticketing authority,” said Malou Japson, country head for MOVE Philippines.
“Travel is an ecosystem, and no single player can thrive in isolation. Our growing engagement with both local and global tourism and aviation organizations strengthens our ability to collaborate, build meaningful partnerships, and contribute to conversations shaping the future of travel in the Philippines. We see a strong opportunity for MOVE to take a more active role in connecting Filipinos to the world, while helping position the Philippines as a more accessible, and compelling destination for international travelers. Ultimately, our goal is not simply to facilitate travel, but to help build stronger connections across the entire travel ecosystem.”
MOVE said the accreditation could create more opportunities for airlines, travel businesses and tourism partners to reach travelers through expanded distribution and technology.
Earlier this year, MOVE became a member of the Philippine Travel Agencies Association and Philippine Tour Operators Association, strengthening its ties with the local travel industry.
The platform has also been working with the Department of Tourism through the “Discover More to Love” campaign, which aims to promote domestic travel.
MOVE said it will continue expanding its airline partnerships and travel services to connect more travelers with destinations and experiences in the Philippines, Asean and around the world.
