Singapore Airlines and Vistara have signed a commercial cooperation framework agreement that will allow them to harmonise efforts in capacity planning, sales, marketing, joint fare products, customer services and operations, an official statement said Monday. The agreement is an extension of a codeshare partnership between the airlines. “Strengthening the partnership between SIA (Singapore Airlines) and Vistara will allow both airlines to achieve further synergies on services between Singapore and India, as well as in the key regions of South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand,” the airlines said in a joint statement. Vistara is a 51:49 joint venture between the Tata group and Singapore Airlines, it said.
The commercial cooperation framework agreement is subject to regulatory approval in Singapore, the statement mentioned. “This will be important as the aviation industry recovers from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and both international and domestic connectivity is restored in a gradual and calibrated manner in tandem with the demand for air travel,” the statement noted.
