New Delhi: National carrier Air India today said it expects to put-in place code-share partnerships with most member airlines of the Star Alliance grouping by March next year.
"We are looking at closer interaction with member airlines. By March (2015), we aim at having code-share agreements with most Star Alliance member airlines," said AI chairman and managing director, Rohit Nandan.
Nandan, along with Star Alliance chief executive Mark Schwab and Chief Executive Board (CEB) chairman Calin Rovinescu, who is also the President and CEO of Air Canada, was addressing the media after the conclusion of the two-day CEB meeting in the national capital.
This was the first time that the CEB meet took place in India following the entry of AI as the 27th member of the elite global airlines' club in July this year.
Nandan said that AI has signed a code-share agreement with Air Canada besides MOUs recently with Avianca and EVA Air. "The focus will now be on geographies such as Africa and South America," he said.
