Singapore Airlines (SIA) and regional subsidiary SilkAir have signed an agreement with Vistara to expand codesharing to international routes from 6 August 2019, when it launches its Delhi – Singapore operations.
Under the expansion of the existing codeshare agreement, which covers Indian domestic flights, SIA will add its ‘SQ’ designator code to Vistara’s new international flights. In addition, SIA and SilkAir will add nine new codeshare destinations within India on Vistara-operated flights. With this expansion, SIA will codeshare on Vistara flights to more than 20 Indian destinations.
Similarly, Vistara will add its ’UK’ designator code to SIA- and SilkAir-operated flights between Singapore and eight destinations in India[. As part of the arrangement, Vistara will codeshare on services to more than 40 destinations[3] in the SIA and SilkAir network. These codeshares will be implemented in phases and are subject to regulatory approvals. This is the first time Vistara will be codesharing with partner airlines on international flights.
