Abhijit DasGupta, Senior Vice President Network Planning & Revenue Management, IndiGo said: “We are pleased to expand our portfolio of codeshare partnerships with this agreement with Japan Airlines. Japan has been increasing in popularity amongst Indian travellers, as both countries are working to strengthen bilateral relationships and ease the visa norms.”
Ross Leggett, Managing Executive Officer, Senior Vice President Route Marketing, Japan Airlines, added: “We are excited to announce our new codeshare partnership with IndiGo, having the largest domestic network in India, and offering high-quality service to customers. With the extensive network, travelers to/from India and Japan will be able to book their flight on one ticket, and experience both IndiGo and JAL’s exceptional service.”
