InterGlobe Aviation has entered into a codeshare partnership with British Airways. Under this partnership, British Airways will add its code to a couple of destinations across IndiGo’s network and customers can enjoy improved connectivity between India and the United Kingdom for travel. Codeshare flights will be available for travel from October 12, 2023.
Codesharing allows an airline to book its passengers on its partner carriers and provide seamless travel to destinations where it has no presence. British Airways operates 56 flights a week to five Indian cities — Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, and Hyderabad. IndiGo already has codeshare partnerships with Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways, American Airlines, Air France-KLM, Australian carrier Qantas and Virgin Atlantic. IndiGo also has an interline pact with Jetstar. An interline arrangement refers to a pact to issue and accept tickets for flights that are operated by the partner airline.
