Jet Airways and Air Seychelles unveil codeshare partnership
Jet Airways and Air Seychelles, the national airline of the Republic of Seychelles, recently unveiled a codeshare partnership that offers travellers enhanced connections on their respective networks.
The agreement heralds an era of closer cooperation between the two airlines which, in subsequent months, will include reciprocal frequent flyer programmes, cargo handling, and expansion of codeshare arrangements.
Jet Airways will place its “9W” code on Air Seychelles’ four per week flights between Mumbai and Mahé as well as the carrier’s flights to Abu Dhabi and Johannesburg.
In turn, Air Seychelles will place its “HM” code on Jet Airways’ domestic services from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Kochi, and Thiruvananthapuram, and also on Jet Airways’ international services between Abu Dhabi and Mumbai.
Cramer Ball, CEO, Jet Airways said: “We are pleased to sign this codeshare agreement with Air Seychelles, which reflects our growing ambitions in the region. “The agreement makes Seychelles more accessible to our guests, and opens up other key destinations and multiple travel options that we constantly endeavour to offer our guests.
“The Seychelles archipelago, with its 115 scenic islands, has great appeal to business and leisure travellers and we are committed to working with Air Seychelles and the Seychelles tourism industry to continue developing air connectivity”.
