Qantas has expanded its codeshare agreement with IndiGo to provide passengers seamless connections to additional eight cities, bringing the total number of Indian destinations from Delhi and Bengaluru to 21. Qantas customers will also have more choice across IndiGo’s domestic network with more than 250 new flights available for booking.
Qantas launched the first phase of its codeshare agreement with IndiGo in August 2022, offering customers seamless connections from Qantas flights in Bengaluru and Delhi to IndiGo services to other major Indian cities, including Mumbai and Chennai along with smaller destinations such as Pune and Goa.
Markus Svensson, Chief Customer Officer, Qantas said: “Qantas’ new routes to India have proven to be incredibly popular with our customers. The new codeshare flights will allow our customers to enjoy more connections across India from our Delhi and Bengaluru gateways and have their luggage checked straight through to their final destination.”
Qantas Frequent Flyers can earn and redeem points on connecting IndiGo flights (with the QF code) and IndiGo recognises Qantas Frequent Flyer benefits for tiered members (Silver, Gold, Platinum and Platinum One) including priority check-in and priority baggage.
Qantas customers travelling on IndiGo can carry the same baggage allowance as their flight from Australia as well as receiving complimentary food and drinks.
Qantas operates four return flights from Melbourne to Delhi per week and four return flights from Sydney to Bengaluru per week.
