Japan Airlines and Vistara expand codeshare partnership

Japan Airlines (JAL) and Vistara have expanded their codeshare partnership which will give passengers additional options when travelling between Japan and India.

Starting March 15, the two carriers will provide codeshare services on JAL’s international routes to India,  as well as on connecting flights to major cities in their respective countries.

Through this agreement, JAL will add 13 new destinations to its international network in India, such as Goa and Amritsar, while Indian carrier Vistara will add five cities in Japan in its virtual network, which are Sapporo, Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka.
JAL’s Tokyo-Delhi codeshare route will first start with the Narita-Delhi service, which will be operated until March 28 this year and will be replaced by the Haneda-Delhi service from March 29.

Ticket sales for the new codeshare routes will start from March 6.

Commenting on the expanded partnership, Hideki Oshima, Japan Airlines’ executive officer for international relations and alliances, said: “The travel demand from India to Japan has more than doubled in the past decade, making this a key market for Japan Airlines.

“By strengthening our partnership with Vistara, we will provide an international network that better matches the actual needs of our mutual customers,” he added.
