Singapore Airlines and Garuda Indonesia Expands Codeshare Agreement - Between Singapore and Jakarta
Singapore Airlines and Garuda Indonesia have just announced an expanded codeshare agreement between the two carriers - flights on SQ and GA will be codesharing between Singapore and the capital of Indonesia, Jakarta. With this new agreement, there will be nine flights per day on the aforementioned route and this offers travellers more flexibility and options when it comes to flight timings.
The two carriers first started codesharing in 2010 on each other’s flights between Singapore and Denpasar (Bali). In 2014, the agreement was expanded to include flights between Singapore and Surabaya. Singapore Airlines’s regional subsidiary SilkAir also codeshares on Garuda Indonesia-operated flights to Denpasar and Surabaya, while Garuda Indonesia codeshares on SilkAir-operated flights to ten destinations in its Indonesia network. Singapore Airlines and Garuda Indonesia operate a combined total of 175 weekly scheduled services between Singapore and Indonesia.
