Korean Air and Etihad Airways have expanded their code-share agreement to include the Middle-East and Africa.
Since mid-September, Korean Air has put its airline “KE” code on the Abu Dhabi-Johannesburg and Abu Dhabi-Muscat routes operated by Etihad Airways. In addition, the code share will be extended to include Abu Dhabi-Khartoum (subject to approval from Sudanese government). The code share flights between Dhabi-Muscat operate twice a week and the flights between Abu Dhabi - Johannesburg operate three times a week. Abu Dhabi - Khartoum flights will operate five times a week.
Korean Air has implemented a mileage partnership with Etihad Airways, allowing Korean Air Skypass members to earn frequent flyer points with Etihad Airways.
