Mumbai-based Jet Airways has entered into a code share agreement with US-based United Airlines in an attempt to provide better network connectivity between US and India.
The agreement would enable travellers to fly United Airlines' trans-Atlantic flights from London to Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver and Washington and trans- Pacific flights from Hong Kong to Chicago and San Francisco.
In turn, United's flyers would be getting excellent connectivity to Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Goa, Hyderabad and Kolkata through Jet's hub at Mumbai.
"Establishing our code share flights with Jet Airways provides more destinations and more convenience for our customers," said Mr Mark Schwab, United's senior vice president of Alliances, International & Regulatory Affairs.
