Japan Airlines, Korean Air to extend code-share agreement
Japan Airlines (JAL) and Korean Air (KAL) will expand their code share partnership from seven routes and 104 flights per week to nine routes and 266 flights per week, effective March 26.
In addition to the existing code share agreements, the carriers will launch extra code share flights between Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and Seoul. On a one-way basis, the two airlines will code share on an additional 84 flights per week on the Narita/Seoul route, 56 flights per week on the Kansai/Seoul route, and 28 flights per week on the Nagoya/Seoul route.
On the four flights per week code share service between Komatsu and Seoul, KAL operated aircraft will replace JAL aircraft. JAL will suspend its three flights per week Hiroshima/Seoul service March 24.
The two airlines started code share operations in 2004.
