Singapore Airlines and Transaero Airlines ink codeshare pact

The agreement gives SIA customers new travel choices in Russia via Moscow and Singapore flights.

Singapore Airlines and Transaero Airlines have concluded a codeshare agreement to expand the networks of both airlines.

The agreement was signed by Mr Joey Seow, Singapore Airlines’ Vice President Partnerships, and Transaero’s General Director, Ms Olga Pleshakova. The codeshare flights are available for sale from 18 July for travel from 1 August 2011.

Under the agreement, Singapore Airlines will add its code to Transaero-operated flights between the Russian capital Moscow and Ekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Samara and St. Petersburg. Transaero will in turn add its code to Singapore Airlines-operated flights between Moscow and Singapore, and between Moscow and the US city of Houston, according to a SIA report.

Singapore Airlines’ Senior Vice President Marketing, Mr Tan Chik Quee, said: “We are delighted to announce this agreement with Transaero. It provides new travel choices in Russia for our customers on our well established partner airline. We are confident the tie-up will pave the way for more leisure and business travel by offering customers of both airlines more travel options via Moscow and Singapore.”

Ms Pleshakova added:”We are very pleased about this new cooperation agreement with Singapore Airlines, one of the leading carriers in the world with internationally acclaimed top-quality service. There is no doubt that passengers from Singapore, Russia and other countries will appreciate the opportunity to arrange their trips on these new codeshare flights.”

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
