History
The precursors to the HiWorld Alliance first began on January 8, 2021, when FliHigh Airlines wished to leave the SkyNation Alliance due to the alliance's inactivity and the Modgate controversy. However, nothing came of it, and FliHigh remained with the inactive alliance.
However, in October 2021, Venceslo-Fifth Ward International Airport's gate assignments were reorganized to give FliHigh it's own unified concourse, Concourse B. During this reorganization, a gate in Concourse B was also given to SkyTrans, an airline that time2makemymove had recently acquired as well. With this gate partnership at VFW, time2makemymove decided for both FliHigh and SkyTrans to leave SkyNation and form their own new airline partnership, to facilitate connections between the two across the server. This new alliance was dubbed HiWorld, named for the "Hi" in FliHigh and the "World" in which FliHigh wished to further connect (the New World of the MRT server), with the logo using one color from each airline. As such, HiWorld was officially founded on October 19, 2021, although it was not publicly announced at the time.
As updates to VFW were continuing, time2makemymove realized the potential for more connections, not only within the concourse but at other concourses on the server. This, combined with the fact that time2 did not wish to abandon the ties with other SkyNation members, prompted invites to be extended to all other active airlines in SkyNation: FlyCreeper, ViaFly (now Equinox), Michigana, and MylesHeli. All were eventually accepted, and the alliance was officially announced to the public on October 23, 2021, coinciding with the reorganization of Venceslo-Fifth Ward International Airport's gate assignments to turn concourse B into the first official HiWorld Concourse on the MRT server.
Upon the public announcement of the alliance, Paklong Hibernal and Sandstone Airr joined HiWorld on October 23, 2021 as well.
In November 2021, the second HiWorld concourse was created at Fort Yaxier International Airport's Concourse B, with many member airlines receiving a small gate at Gate B1.
Luz (now JiffyAir) joined the alliance on December 9, 2021, but left on October 25, 2022. aero joined the alliance on April 2, 2022.
