British Airways and Swiss International
Air Lines today signed a legally binding
memorandum of understanding under which the two airlines envisage entering into a commercial agreement.
British Airways and Swiss plan joint operations between the UK and
Switzerland with codesharing on London Heathrow Swiss routes (Geneva, Basle, and Zurich)
from October 26 that will give both airlines’ customers convenient access to
worldwide destinations via London and Zurich.
The Swiss frequent flyer scheme will be gradually integrated into the British
Airways’ Executive Club. Miles already earned with Swiss will retain their
current validity.
In addition, BA will enter into a slot exchange agreement for eight Heathrow
daily slot pairs from Swiss.
