Singapore Airlines and Air India expand codeshare agreement

The expansion covers 11 Indian cities and 40 international destinations.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Air India have expanded their codeshare agreement to cover 11 Indian cities and 40 international destinations.

The expansion will increase their total weekly codeshare services between the countries from 14 to 56, including flights between Singapore and Indian cities like Bengaluru and Chennai.

SIA will codeshare on Air India’s domestic flights from Delhi to Amritsar, Bengaluru, Coimbatore, Lucknow, and Varanasi, and from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, Amritsar, Bengaluru, Coimbatore, Goa, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, and Thiruvananthapuram.

Additionally, it will codeshare between Kolkata and Guwahati.  

Through SIA’s network, Air India customers will be able to reach 29 destinations, such as cities in Australia, Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea, and key cities in Southeast Asia like Kuala Lumpur, Penang, and Cebu.

Meanwhile, SIA customers will be able to connect to Air India’s international flights from Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai to 12 destinations in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, including Copenhagen, Paris, Frankfurt, Milan, Nairobi, Amsterdam, Jeddah, Riyadh, Colombo, Birmingham, London-Gatwick, and London-Heathrow.


Once regulatory approvals are secured, both airlines will release the codeshare flights for booking through their respective channels.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
