Jet Airways has expanded its codeshare arrangement with All Nippon Airways (ANA), offering guests enhanced network connectivity between Japan and India. The reciprocal codeshare is open for sale and travel with immediate effect. The agreement will mean guests travelling on both Jet Airways and ANA will be able to fly between Tokyo and Osaka in Japan to various points across India on connecting flights operated by both carriers. In addition to the existing codeshare on ANA Mumbai –Tokyo direct flights, Jet Airways will place its marketing code on ANA operated flights between Hong Kong – Tokyo/Osaka and Bangkok – Tokyo. Similarly, ANA will place its code on Jet Airways flights operated between Hong Kong and Mumbai/Delhi, Bangkok and Mumbai/Delhi/Kolkata, Singapore and Mumbai/Delhi/Chennai and on domestic India routes between Mumbai and Delhi/Chennai/Kolkata.
In addition, JetPrivilege members will earn JPMiles for their entire journey when they fly on Jet Airways codeshare flights from India to Japan. Speaking about the initiative, Nikos Kardassis, CEO, Jet Airways, said, “Jet Airways has constantly endeavoured to offer enhanced travel opportunities to its guests and our codeshare agreement with ANA is another distinctive travel solution. India and Japan share strong ties, ranging from leisure and business tourism to commercial trade. Thanks to the expanded codeshare agreement, we will be able to offer our guests wider access, unmatched connectivity and seamless travel to Japan’s key markets, with Japan’s premium airline.”
