Jet Airways and MAS look at possibility of code-sharing

It has been revealed that heads from Jet Airways and Malaysia Airlines are scheduled to meet later in the month to discuss ways that the airlines could enhance cooperation.
The talks would consider options such as a code-share for operations between Malaysia and India, to be put in place as early as the middle of the year.
“Code-sharing is something we would like to do with MAS, if they agree we could possibly look at it for Mumbai flights. The idea here is synergy, so if we can code-share on their Mumbai flights, then they can code-share with our Chennai flights,” said Kavin Martinus, Jet Airways Malaysia Manager, in Malaysian newspaper The Edge.
“We hope to see double-digit growth in overall demand going forward from KL–Chennai flights.”
The Kuala Lumpur–Chennai route, last week saw Jet Airways launch its new Airbus 330-200s.
