EL AL Israel Airlines has signed a new codeshare agreement with Azerbaijan Airlines, EL AL CEO Dina Ben Tal Ganacia said on LinkedIn.
As part of the partnership, EL AL's code will be added to Azerbaijan Airlines' flights between Tel Aviv and Baku, and later to additional connecting flights.
The agreement will allow more convenient access to Baku, Ganacia said, while earning points in its frequent flyer programme.
The agreement adds to its various other strategic partnerships signed over the past year, including Delta Air Lines, Air France, KLM, and Virgin Atlantic. These agreements, Ganacia said, are part of its “vision to expand our route network and offer more travel options” to its customers.
