Air Canada and Etihad Codeshare
 
MONTREAL — Air Canada (TSX:AC.B) has signed an agreement with Etihad Airways to improve travel services between the United Arab Emirates and Canada including discussions to finalize a code-share deal, the airline announced Thursday.

The two airlines already have interline agreements in place for passenger and cargo services and hope to introduce code-share services, which integrate their bookings more closely, in the third quarter.

The agreement will allow Etihad Guest and Aeroplan travellers to earn frequent flyer miles on code-share flights and reciprocal premium lounge access in Toronto and Abu Dhabi for eligible passengers.

So far it's just a codeshare, I personally don't believe this deal will lead to any equity partnerships like the other airlines, as LH and German banks own a large percentage of AC already. But this may encourage better relations between the UAE and Canada, and UAE carriers may be given more frequency to Canada.

OMG - EY is code-sharing with everyone. Last week they announced JU code-share, this week AC, who next week?
