Air Canada has reached an agreement with United Airlines to expand the partnership between the two airlines in order to offer more flight options to the United States.
The two companies are already cooperating in the cross-border market.
The agreement marks a new phase in the relationship between Air Canada and United, which should boost the post-pandemic recovery and strengthen both companies, the senior vice president of network planning and revenue management argued on Friday. business at Air Canada, Mark Galardo.
Under the new agreement, airlines will be able to coordinate their networks and schedules, a move they say will allow them to offer more choice to their customers.
Air Canada and United will also be able to sell seats on the other carrier’s transborder flights and share revenue on flights between core markets where regulatory authorities and antitrust requirements permit.
United and Air Canada are founding members of the Star Alliance network and have entered into a transatlantic joint venture agreement with the Lufthansa Group.
