Lufthansa bets on India growth; to boost ties with Jet Airways

Bullish on Indian market, European airliner group Lufthansa plans to enhance bilateral ties with Jet Airways   for increased connectivity to new cities and launch flight from Brussels to Mumbai next month.
Lufthansa Group, which operates 60 flights to and from India per week, has recently introduced the fuel-efficient A350-900 aircraft on Munich-Delhi route.
"We are also looking to intensify the bilateral relationship between Jet Airways and Lufthansa," Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO of Deutsche Lufthansa AG Carsten Spohr today said.
Already, Lufthansa and Jet Airways operate code share flights on certain routes and this collaboration is likely to be expanded further.
Code share allows an airline to book its passengers for destination where it does not fly through a partner carrier.
Recently, the European major had expanded its partnership with Gulf carrier Etihad Airways -- which is a strategic partner of Jet Airways.
All the three carriers have significant presence in the European market.
