Korean Air to Expand Codeshare Operations with Jin Air

Travel News Asia Latest Travel News Podcasts Videos Friday, 27 March 2015
 

Korean Air has strengthened the partnership with its subsidiary low cost carrier Jin Air, with new codeshare agreements on six routes.

Korean Air will codeshare with Jin Air on the following routes: Seoul – Nagasaki; Seoul – Okinawa; Seoul – Macao; Seoul – Kota Kinabalu; Seoul – Vientiane and Seoul – Guam.

The codeshare means Korean Air can now sell tickets with its marketing flight number KE on the six routes operated by Jin Air. Whilst reservation and ticketing services on these routes will now be offered by Korean Air, the actual flights will be operated by Jin Air.

Members of Korean Air’s frequent flyer program Skypass will accumulate points when using the codeshare agreement to purchase Korean Air tickets for Jin Air flights and will also be able to use points towards ticket purchase.

Korean Air and Jin Air are working closely together to accommodate the requirement for premium, full service and low cost air travel, which may in some instances see both airlines operating on the same route if there is the demand.

Jin Air’s aircraft maintenance is undertaken by Korean Air.

The codeshare will commence when the authorities from all the concerned countries approve the agreement.
