Virgin-Singapore code share opens up domestic routes
Singapore Airlines has started code sharing on Australian domestic flights operated by alliance partner Virgin Australia.
The code share will provide customers travelling to and from Australia with more travel options and seamless connections.
Singapore Airlines currently serves five Australian cities – Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. With the “SQ” designator code on Virgin Australia-operated flights, 20 more cities have been added to SIA’s codeshare network.
Singapore Airlines executive vice president commercial, Mak Swee Wah, said, “Our customers across the globe can now enjoy seamless access to more parts of Australia through Virgin Australia’s extensive domestic network. This opens up a wide range of itineraries to both business and leisure travellers alike, with the full service convenience that customers expect of Singapore Airlines.”
The alliance also enables members of Singapore Airlines’ KrisFlyer frequent flyer program to earn and redeem miles for Virgin Australia flights, in addition to offering eligible customers access to Virgin Australia lounges
