Korean Air Expands Codeshare with China Airlines

Korean Air has expanded its codeshare agreement with China Airlines, increasing the flights offered by Korean Air between South Korea and Taiwan.

Flights have been added between Seoul and Kaohsiung and also between Busan and Taipei.

The codeshare will allow Korean Air to sell tickets with its marketing flight number KE on the flights operated by China Airlines.

Prior to the expanded agreement Korean Air, codesharing with China Airlines, offered a total of 25 flights per week on just the Seoul – Taipei route; fourteen flights operated by Korean Air and eleven flights operated by China Airlines.

The new codeshare agreement will allow Korean Air to provide an additional twenty-one flights between South Korea and Taiwan (seven flights on the Seoul – Kaohsiung route and fourteen flights on Busan – Taipei route).

In addition, members of Korean Air’s frequent flyer program Skypass will accumulate points when using the codeshare agreement to purchase Korean Air tickets for China Airlines flights.
