Jetstar Group and Qantas to extend codeshare pact

Published: 01/02/2011 - Jetstar Group and Qantas is expanding their codeshare agreement to cover 11 routes originating from both companies' Singapore hub at Changi International Airport.

 

Jetstar Group's airline brands - Jetstar Asia and Valuair - will carry Qantas flight numbers on their flights to Jakarta, Auckland, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Osaka (via Taipei), Denpasar, Penang, Ho Chi Minh City, Phuket, Hong Kong and Taipei.

 

Tickets for the codeshare routes will be on sale from March 1 and will be valid for travel from April 1, 2011. The partnership will also apply on Jetstar Asia's new daily Singapore-Auckland which will be launched on March 17, using an Airbus A330.

 

For Qantas customers, these new codeshare flights with Jetstar Asia and ValuAir give them wider travel options from Changi airport. As part of the agreement, Qantas customers on these codeshare flights will also receive a seamless booking and ticketing experience, with full baggage connectivity, standard Qantas baggage allowance as well as complimentary meals.

I've long waited for this, though I was expecting QF to codeshare on MH/SQ instead since the liberalization of the route. Finally we can book online to/from KUL to/from LHR, FRA and Australia

I'd fly MH over JQ anyday!
