Emirates, United activate airline codeshare partnership
Emirates and United Airlines have started their airline codeshare partnership.
It allows Emirates customers to gain easier access to an expanded choice of US destinations.
Emirates customers can now fly to three of the biggest business hubs – Chicago, Houston and San Francisco and connect easily to United’s network.
With the airline codeshare, Emirates customers can access more than 150 US cities.
Travellers with itineraries on Emirates’ codeshare flights can plan their entire trip on a single-ticket and bag check-through to the final destination.
Emirates is also enabling its Skywards members to earn and redeem miles on all flights across United’s network.
The partnership unlocks a host of key destinations such as Atlanta, Denver, Minneapolis and Phoenix.
Reciprocal benefits extend to passengers flying out of the US using Emirates services to Dubai.
Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ CCO said: “We are extremely delighted to activate this historic partnership and significantly expand our footprint in the US.”
Emirates currently offers services between its hub in Dubai and 12 US cities.
