==Management==
Oneworld announced the formation of a central alliance team, the Oneworld Management Company (oMC), in February 2000, to mark the alliance's first anniversary. The oMC was established May 2000 in [[Vancouver]], British Columbia, Canada
The oMC was first led by managing partner Peter Buecking, previously director of sales and marketing at [[Cathay Pacific]]; followed by John McCulloch, previously the alliance's vice-president for marketing. Bruce Ashby, who previously held roles of CEO of [[Saudi Arabia]]'s [[Sama (airline)|SAMA Airlines]], CEO of India's [[IndiGo]], and executive vice-president for [[US Airways]], became CEO in December 2011. Rob Gurney succeeded Ashby as CEO in October 2016.<ref name="RobGurney2016">{{cite web|title= '''one'''world CEO Rob Gurney |url=https://www.oneworld.com/news-information/oneworld-fact-sheets/oneworld-ceo-rob-gurney |publisher=Oneworld |access-date=25 October 2016 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161025181233/https://www.oneworld.com/news-information/oneworld-fact-sheets/oneworld-ceo-rob-gurney |archive-date=25 October 2016 }}</ref>

===Subsidiaries and franchises===
Besides its full member airlines, Oneworld also includes{{when?|date=May 2024}} around{{weasel-inline|date=May 2024}} 30 "affiliate" members. These are generally regional airlines that are either owned by or have strong commercial links with the alliance's full members. For customers, they further extend the network the alliance can offer. In governance terms, these affiliates are represented in Oneworld affairs by their "parent" airline.
[[Air Liberté]] ceased to be an affiliate member of Oneworld when the French airline was sold by British Airways to French investment group Taitbout with the UK carrier explaining that it had been unable to receive adequate returns on its investment in the business.<ref>{{Cite news|title=BA sells Air Liberte|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/736703.stm|publisher=BBC|date=5 May 2000|access-date=7 August 2009|archive-date=18 October 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151018003504/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/736703.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> [[Kenya]]-based [[Regional Air (Kenya)|Regional Air]] joined the alliance on 1 July 2001, following its franchising agreement with British Airways.<ref>{{cite press release|title='''one'''world extends its international lead with addition of new African affiliate|url=http://www.oneworld.com/ow/news/details?objectID=1572|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120911200140/http://www.oneworld.com/ow/news/details?objectID=1572|url-status=dead|archive-date=11 September 2012|publisher=oneworld|date=8 June 2001|access-date=7 August 2009}}</ref> [[British Airways]] terminated its franchise agreement with Regional Air when the African carrier suspended flights in mid April 2005, ending its affiliate membership of Oneworld.<ref>{{cite press release|title=Regional Air no longer a '''one'''world affiliate as BA terminates its franchise agreement|url=http://www.oneworld.com/ow/news/details?objectID=4782|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120905105745/http://www.oneworld.com/ow/news/details?objectID=4782|url-status=dead|archive-date=5 September 2012|publisher=oneworld|date=19 April 2005|access-date=7 August 2009}}</ref> [[Trans World Airlines|TWA]]'s [[regional airline|regional carriers]], which operated under the [[Trans World Express]] brand, became Oneworld affiliate members, as their name changed to [[AmericanConnection]] on 2 December 2001, following TWA's acquisition by American Airlines.
