Codeshare facility denied to United Airlines, Emirates; what does it mean
Centre has refused United Airlines to codeshare with Emirates on routes from India, The Economic Times (ET) reported. The permission to codeshare was denied as this is not covered under the traffic rights agreement between India and Dubai.
What is a codeshare agreement?
A codeshare agreement, also known as codeshare is a commercial agreement under which two or more airlines come together and display an airline service as their own even if all of them don’t have an aircraft on a given route.
For example, a flight may be operated by Carrier A but Carrier B and Carrier C can also sell seats on that aircraft as part of the codeshare agreement.
