Singapore Airlines And ANA To Code-Share From August This Year
21 June 2004
ANA and Singapore Airlines (SIA) have reached an agreement to begin code-sharing operations on flights between Japan and Singapore from August 1 this year. From that date, SIA’s two-letter code will be applied to ANA’s 7 weekly flights between Tokyo Narita and Singapore, and Singapore Airline’s 42 weekly flights between Singapore and Tokyo Narita, Osaka Kansai, Nagoya and Fukuoka will carry the ANA code. A total of 49 flights per week, using 777 and 747 aircraft, will be covered by the agreement.
At a recent meeting in Singapore, the CEOs of both companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding sealing their commitment to forge a closer commercial relationship: the new code-share agreement on flights between the two countries is a first step, and paves the way forward for further cooperation in the future.
“The Singapore Airlines name is synonymous throughout the world with excellence; we have been partners for several years in the Star Alliance and it is an honour to take that relationship to this new stage. With our common legacy of Asian hospitality and service we will work together to bring even greater satisfaction and convenience to our passengers,“ said ANA President and CEO Yoji Ohashi.
Said SIA Chief Executive Officer Chew Choon Seng: “We are very pleased to enter into this agreement with ANA, an airline we hold in high esteem. This code-sharing agreement brings together the high quality products and service offered by the two carriers. Our customers will now have a wider choice when they travel between Singapore and Japan.”
ANA and Singapore Airlines are both members of Star Alliance and their passengers already enjoy reciprocal frequent flyer programme, through check-in and common lounge benefits, amongst others. ANA Mileage Club and Singapore Airline’s KrisFlyer members will be able to accrue and redeem mileage on the jointly operated code-share flights in the same way as flights operated by any other Star Alliance member.
