Jet Airways Expands Codeshare Pact With Italian Carrier

Mumbai: Private carrier Jet Airways said it has expanded its codeshare pact with Italian airline Alitalia, which offers passengers of the two carriers enhanced network connectivity across cities of the two countries.
The new code-share flights are on sale from July 1, for travel starting from July 5, Jet Airways said in a release.
Codeshare is a commercial agreement between two or more airlines that share the same flight, with all partners able to sell seats on that flight.
As part of the expanded codeshare agreement, while the Jet Airways passengers will get seamless connectivity to Italy from Mumbai, Delhi, Kochi, Amritsar, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkata and Udaipur, the Alitalia passenger can fly directly to India from Rome, Venice, Naples, Turin, Florench, Verona and Bologna, the release said.
"Thanks to the expanded codeshare agreement, we are able to offer our guests a wider access, unmatched connectivity and seamless travel to Italy's top destinations.
The agreement with Alitalia is a further step in Jet Airways' strategy of growing on the global marketplace," Jet Airways Senior Vice President (Commercial) Gaurang Shetty said in the release.
