India’s most popular airline IndiGo is expanding its network to connect to more US cities beginning 18 December but not with its own metal. These additional connections are made possible thanks to an expanding codeshare partnership .
Indigo is partnering with Turkish Airlines to expand access to the American markets. Turkish airlines flies to nine US cities total, offering one of the most affordable means to travel to international destinations like Istanbul, Turkey, Mumbai, India, and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
IndiGo To The US Via Turkish Airlines Partner
IndiGo has commenced codeshare service thanks to a growing relationship with Turkish Airlines. The low-cost Indian airline will now offer connections to Houston, Atlanta, Miami, and Los Angeles on Turkish Airlines. Each new route will connect in Istanbul.
These new routes will provide business and leisure travelers in America an affordable way to fly to India via Turkey. They also give Indian, Turkish, and other international travelers access to more American destinations aside from the more frequently connected cities of New York and San Francisco.
Each route will fly at least once daily in both directions. Miami and Houston will have an additional flight every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Each city will get one more additional seasonal route in March.
On Google, these new routes are listed for booking under Turkish Airlines but not IndiGo yet. Leveraging Turkish’ codeshare network, IndiGo now connects to a total of 43 international destinations outside of India.
IndiGo’s Activity in Istanbul
IndiGo Head of Global Sales Vinay Malhotra shared these comments with members of the media regarding the new US cities:
“We are delighted to announce four additional connections to the US…under our codeshare partnership with Turkish Airlines. These new connections further enhance travel options for our customers. As we expand our global network and connect people with favored destinations, we remain committed to delivering on our promise of providing affordable, on-time, courteous, and hassle-free travel experiences across our extensive network.”
IndiGo also manages routes involving New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Chicago, and Washington DC.
On 14 December, IndiGo sent two jets to pick up almost 500 stranded passengers in Istanbul after a flight to Delhi was canceled due to a technical problem.
