Southwest Airlines has announced a new interline partnership with Philippine Airlines.
In a statement, Dallas, Texas-based Southwest stated the partnership will open up “dozens” travel options across the Pacific via Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, and Honolulu – including Southwest's interisland operations within the Hawaiian islands.
Customers can book the flights with both carriers through both airlines' and third-party travel websites from November 4.
“Each airline partnership brings unique and incremental reach to places around the globe for both carriers and gives more consumers an opportunity to begin or end their journey with Southwest,” said Andrew Watterson, Chief Operating Officer. “With nearly 90 flights a day in our schedule that touch the Hawaiian Islands and as California’s largest air carrier1, Southwest is positioned like no other airline in serving Philippine Airlines’ passengers arriving or departing the United States.”
"Our interline partnership with Southwest Airlines enables seamless connections and single-ticket journeys across both of our networks.” said Christoph Gaertner, Vice President of Revenue Management, Philippine Airlines. “As we continue to expand PAL's global reach, this collaboration provides more travel options and greater flexibility, giving our guests access to a wider range of destinations in the United States."
With the addition of Philippine Airlines, Southwest expands its global airline partners to four. The airline has partnerships with Icelandair, along with Taiwan-based EVA Air and China Airlines.
