In talks with IndiGo to enhance codeshare agreement: Turkish Airlines

Global passenger carrier Turkish Airlines wants to expand its codeshare agreement with the largest domestic player IndiGoNSE 0.92 % to expand its India footprint and tap into the rising transfer passenger traffic from the country. A codeshare agreement allows two airlines to sell seats on each others’ flights in order to provide passengers with a wider choice of destinations. The Istanbul-based airline is in a unique position as it not only has a codeshare agreement with IndiGo, but also with Air India.

The airline has commenced talks with IndiGo over the possibility of enhancing their present agreement, which was reached in 2018. The current codeshare and mutual cooperation agreements between Turkish Airlines and IndiGo enables passengers of both the carriers to fly to various destinations in India, Turkey and beyond.
