CX to codeshare with UO
 
Has CX ever codeshared with any LCC’s before? The only I can think of is WS, which isn’t exactly a LCC anymore. I guess we will finally be earning AM and CP on UO.

Have they owned any LCCs before?

Boy does it ever...expecting to see them in widebodies by this time next year and growing their network rapidly as CX and KA shrink (ala SQ)

I did speculate over at BA that LCCs should take over regional flying for FSCs. FSCs operate long-haul only https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/32340064-post101.html

Maybe an LCC they own - something like American Eagle/Delta Connection/United Express.
So UO will be great for CX, TR for SQ, JQ for QF. JL domestic already looks like LCC but maybe they can roll out domestic service for regional routes too.

For connections to/from long haul, the LCCs owned by long haul FSCs will provide lounge, baggage allowance (MSC), interline and IRROPs protection. But otherwise LCC service.
Passengers O&D or self connecting with those LCCs will simply face pre-COVID LCC debundled service.
