In order to prove the relationship between brand credibility and brand loyalty of global airline alliances, this research suggests a conceptual model. This research found that brand equity had a positive impact toward brand satisfaction and brand loyalty, and also brand satisfaction and brand loyalty had a positive relationship. Another important finding was to verify the moderating effects in the relationship between brand equity-brand loyalty and brand satisfaction-brand loyalty. From the analysis results, it can be said that switching cost plays an important role in the global airline alliance environment.
