IndiGo has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish a codeshare partnership and mutual cooperation agreement with China Southern Airlines.
Under the proposed agreement, China Southern Airlines will be able to offer enhanced connectivity into India while IndiGo customers will be able to connect on China Southern Airlines' network beyond Guangzhou.
“We recently reinstated our direct daily flights connecting Kolkata with Guangzhou followed by inaugurating a new direct service between Delhi and Guangzhou," said IndiGo CEO Pieter Elbers.
"Now with this partnership, our joint customers will get the added convenience of booking seamlessly for travel across various parts of India and China on the joint network of IndiGo and China Southern Airlines.”
China Southern Airlines CEO and president Han Wensheng said: “China Southern Airlines highly values the development potential of the Indian market. Through cooperation with IndiGo, we will be able to further leverage each other's advantages.”
