22 Sep 2023 , 09:40 AM

IndiGo and British Airways have launched a new codeshare partnership to improve connectivity between India and the United Kingdom. British Airways will add new flights to the existing IndiGo network through this codeshare, improving travel connectivity between India and the United Kingdom.

British Airways will launch new flights from Thiruvananthapuram to London’s Heathrow via Mumbai on October 12, Rajkot to Heathrow via Mumbai, and Vadodara to Heathrow via Mumbai.

Amritsar to London’s Heathrow via New Delhi; Kochi to Heathrow via Mumbai; Ahmedabad to Heathrow via Mumbai; Goa to Heathrow via Mumbai; and Kolkata to Heathrow via Mumbai are already IndiGo routes from India to the UK.

Customers can now connect to their destination using a single ticket to and from Heathrow. All British Airways passengers will be able to enjoy a complimentary dinner as well as a UK luggage allowance of two check-in bags weighing 23 kg per person on the connecting IndiGo aircraft to India.

Code sharing is an arrangement between two airlines that allows one airline to place its two-letter identifying code on another carrier’s flight schedules. This means that a flight can be promoted by one airline while being operated by another.
