Alliance Air (formerly Air India Regional), presently owned by the Government of India (GoI) as the Designated Indian Flag Carrier, mainly operates domestic routes as part of the government's Regional Connectivity Scheme (UDAN). As of May 2024, Alliance Air operates to 57 destinations in India with 21 planes, including 18 number of 72-seater ATR 72-600, 2 number of 48-seater ATR 42-600, and 1 17-seater Dornier 228. Operating in the hub and spokes model, it has hubs at Delhi (Indira Gandhi International Airport), Mumbai (Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport), Hyderabad (Rajiv Gandhi International Airport), Bengaluru (Kempegowda International Airport), and Kolkata (Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport).

It is presently a wholly-owned subsidiary of Air India Asset Holdings Limited, a special purpose vehicle formed by the GoI to retain the ownership of the Alliance Air after its parent company Air India was sold to Tata Sons in 2021.
