Hong Kong Airlines has agreed a code sharing agreement with India’s Jet Airways to expand connectivity throughout Asia Pacific.
The pact calls for the placing of Jet Airways’ code on Hong Kong Airlines operated flights from HK to Okinawa and Tokyo in Japan, Bali, Hanoi, Bangkok and Auckland.
Hong Kong Airlines likewise can book through tickets from Hong Kong to Mumbai and Delhi via Jet Airways’ services using the HX code.
Also, Jet Airways’ Jet Privilege frequent fliers can earn miles when booking any of the code share routes.
"The codeshare with Hong Kong Airlines will enable our guests to experience the joy of flying to key destinations such as Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam and New Zealand, via Hong Kong through our hubs in Mumbai and Delhi. Both business and leisure travel between India and the destinations covered by this arrangement has been growing at a remarkable CAGR of 12% over the last five years," said Jayaraj Shanmugam, chief commercial officer, Jet Airways.
Hong Kong Airlines’ route network currently comprises 36 destinations in Asia Pacific including the Gold Coast, Beijing, Taipei and Seoul.
"There has been great potential in the India market as increasing travellers from India tend to transit via Hong Kong to Japan, South East Asia and even farther to Auckland. By connecting Hong Kong with Mumbai and Delhi, the new agreement enables passengers from these key cities to travel seamlessly," said Li Dianchun, HK Airlines’ chief commercial officer.
