Air France - KLM and the Jetstar Group of
Airlines (Jetstar, Jetstar Asia / Valuair and Jetstar Pacific) are
forming an interline partnership which will encompass all Jetstar
ports, which now totals almost 60 across the network including 21
direct markets into Singapore, and Air France and KLM hubs in
Paris and Amsterdam.
This is the first interline agreement covering
all Jetstar airlines as a collective signed with a full service
carrier outside its parent company Qantas.
Marnix Fruitema, Senior Vice President, Asia
Pacific, Air France - KLM said, “This is a strategic move towards
improving our product offering in this fast growing region of the
world. By joining forces with Jetstar we are offering more choice
in destinations between Europe and the Asia Pacific.”
Jetstar Executive Manager Commercial, David Koczkar
added, “This partnership with one of Europe’s most
established carriers will provide new opportunities for customers
to more easily travel to the almost 60 destinations across the
Asia Pacific region that Jetstar serves, including through our
growing Singapore hub ... Importantly, I also expect that this partnership will
have a positive impact on increasing accessibility for customers
within our domestic networks in Australia, New Zealand and
Vietnam, leading to significant benefits for each of these local
tourism industries.”
