SIA and Japanese airline ANA ink JV deal

The team-up will focus on codeshare flights, mileage programmes and lounge access.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Japan’s All Nippon Airways (ANA) signed a joint venture framework agreement that aims to improve flight connectivity between the two carriers and access to a wider network.

This would also allow ANA and SIA to further strengthen their cooperation on services between Singapore and Japan, including key markets Australia, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

Both airline groups would also be able to jointly offer customers more seamless access to flights in their respective route networks, a broad range of joint fare products, tie-ups between frequent flyer programmes and aligned corporate programmes to strengthen their proposition to corporate clients.

This deal will focus on codeshare flights, mileage programmes, lounge access, and coordination on check-in baggage and connecting flights.

If authorised, SIA will become the third airline joint venture partner for ANA, following its partnership with United Airlines in 2011 and Lufthansa Group in 2012. SIA has joint ventures with Air New Zealand, Lufthansa Group and SAS.

The airline also mentioned that they are planning to form a JV with Malaysia Airlines Berhad.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
