Etihad Airways has launched reciprocal interline partnerships with five new airline partners, further expanding travel options for guests across its expanding global network.
The airline has agreed partnerships with Kam Air in Afghanistan, SKY express in Greece, Rex Airlines in Australia, Jeju Air in South Korea and Myanmar Airways International.
The interline agreements enable customers of all airlines involved to enjoy enhanced connectivity to destinations across each other’s networks, allowing guests to book their entire journey on a single ticket and have their baggage checked through seamlessly to their end destination.
This brings Etihad’s interline, codeshare and strategic partnerships with airlines across the world to 123.
Offering a range of new options for Etihad’s guests with these new partnerships, guests from all over the world at Abu Dhabi’s Zayed International Airport can connect to the Kam Air flight to Kabul and travel onward into Afghanistan, while passengers on Etihad’s twice daily flights to Athens can connect onwards with SKY express to 28 destinations in Greece and its Mediterranean islands.
Rex Airlines provides travellers with access from Etihad’s gateways in Sydney and Melbourne to 22 destinations in Australia, including Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Brisbane, and the Gold Coast, whereas Jeju Air connects guests from Seoul to 27 destinations across seven countries in North-east Asia.
With Myanmar Airways International, passengers get enhanced access to Yangon and Mandalay through Etihad’s gateways in South Asia.
“These five interline agreements make life easier for guests of all the airlines involved,” said Arik De, chief revenue and commercial officer, Etihad.
