Hi all, here for my once-every-couple-of-years question. This time, looking at Afghan airline Safi Airways.

Safi announced back in January that they had signed an interline agreement with United that would allow for checked baggage and travel on a single ticket beyond the initial Kabul - Dubai leg. However I can only find the announcement on Safi's site and a slew of PR sites. Nothing on united.com or anywhere else, and can't find a website that will let me book it.

How can I go about checking into this? Oddly, with the Continental merger, my 'home airline' while at work here in Afghanistan would be the same, or at least partnered with, my preferred in the US (CO/EWR).

Cheers
Tom
