Qantas signs Codeshare with India's Jet Airways

Qantas and India’s Jet Airways have signed a codeshare arrangement that will expand Qantas’ network within India from 6 September, subject to government approval.

The codeshare on Jet Airways means that Qantas will offer a greater than daily frequency from Mumbai to Sydney when combined with the existing Qantas thrice weekly Airbus A330-300 services. In addition, Perth gains a daily codeshare connection to Mumbai.

“India is an important and growing market for Qantas and this partnership with Jet Airways provides us with an opportunity to further develop our business. We will also offer Delhi, a new point on the Qantas network, with daily connections from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth via  Singapore. Cairns, Darwin and Adelaide will also benefit with excellent connections,” said Executive General Manager Qantas Airlines John Borghetti. 

“Our customers will travel in Jet Airways’ fleet of two-class Boeing 737-800 aircraft,” Mr Borghetti added.

The new codeshare services are available for sale from 14 August.
