CHENNAI: American Airlines is opening new doors across India this fall thanks to a new codeshare agreement with IndiGo, India’s leading airline.
The agreement, announced on Monday, will place American’s code on 29 of IndiGo’s domestic routes in India, providing a convenient option for American Airlines customers arriving on the carrier’s new Bengaluru (BLR) and Delhi (DEL) flights.
The codeshare, which will require US and Indian governments’ approvals, is expected to begin in October, as American launches new service between New York (JFK) and Delhi on October 31 and between Seattle (SEA) and Bengaluru on January 4, 2022.
