Hawaiian Airlines Signs Codeshare Agreement with Air China

Hawaiian Airlines has signed a codeshare agreement with Air China. The new partnership takes effect following Hawaiian's launch of its three-times weekly nonstop service to Beijing earlier this week.

Through this multi-phase partnership, Hawaiian Airlines will place its two-letter HA booking code on Air China-operated flights from Beijing to Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou and Shenyang. Likewise, Air China will place its two-letter CA booking code on Hawaiian Airlines-operated neighbor island flights from Honolulu to Kahului, Līhu'e, Kona and Hilo.

Mr. Song Zhiyong, CEO of Air China, said, "Air China is dedicated to establishing close relationships with airlines worldwide. We believe the codeshare partnership with Hawaiian Airlines will further extend the networks of both companies, bring convenience to passengers from and around China traveling to the Hawaiian Islands and U.S. Mainland, and to Hawaiian passengers traveling to Beijing and beyond."

Future cooperation between both carriers is expected to include additional codeshare cities in both China and North America.

Both Hawaiian Airlines and Air China are also negotiating a reciprocal partnership that will allow their respective frequent flyer members to earn and redeem miles for travel on either carrier.
