We are glad to be a member of these 3 alliances! Please take a look at our alliances below to know more about them.
SkyTeam Virtual Alliance
SkyTeamIF was founded in August 2018 by Air France-KLM Virtual Group and Delta Virtual Air Lines. SkyTeam has been the dream of the leadership of the two Virtual Airlines since the conception of Infinite Flight’s Global Update in 2017 and has grown to include six great VA’s on Infinite Flight. The SkyTeam Alliance has flourished behind the scenes with the integration of AF-KLM and DLVA into a centralized slack, with new SkyTeam VAs joining the force.
Global Cargo Alliance
The Global Cargo Alliance (GCA) was established in July of 2021 by UPS Virtual. Now with a growing number of members, our mission is simple - we aim to bring more awareness, exposure and excitement to the cargo portion of Infinite Flight. What can you expect from this alliance? Events, group flights, coordination of cargo activities all in an effort to continue to grow the demand for more cargo VA’s, cargo aircraft and liveries within the Infinite Flight platform. We work as one unified team here with each virtual airline having a say in how we continue to grow our alliance and our unified goals.
We are proud to be the first ever cargo virtual alliance and look forward to inspiring others to join the world of cargo and explore the many different parts of the world that our operations can take you. From small airports in the most well known places, to larger airports in the least known places, there is an adventure for everyone.
