HONG KONG's Cathay Pacific has inked a co-operation agreement with the Lufthansa Group that will enable it to codeshare on Lufthansa, Swiss and Austrian Airline flight to European cities.
Reciprocally, the Lufthansa Group will codeshare on Cathay Pacific services to four of the airline's most popular destinations in southwest Pacific.
Under the agreement, Cathay Pacific will offer 14 new destinations in Germany, Belgium, Hungary, Norway, Italy, Switzerland and Austria with the "CX" code placed on the following services operated by airlines in the Lufthansa Group:
Lufthansa between Frankfurt and Berlin, Brussels, Budapest, Dresden, Hanover, Hamburg, Munich, Nuremberg, Oslo and Stuttgart.
Swiss between Zurich and Berlin, Brussels, Florence, Geneva, Hamburg, Stuttgart and Venice. Austrian Airlines between Vienna and Frankfurt, Zurich and Dusseldorf.
The Lufthansa Group will place its airlines' codes on services operated by Cathay Pacific between Hong Kong and Auckland as well as between Hong Kong and Cairns, Melbourne and Sydney.
The Cathay Pacific Cargo and Lufthansa Cargo air freight subsidiaries signed a co-operation agreement back in May 2016 and, since February 2017, have been jointly marketing their capacities on flights between Hong Kong and Europe.
Cathay Pacific has also taken over Lufthansa's air freight handling operations in Hong Kong; and in Frankfurt, Lufthansa has taken over those of Cathay Pacific. Joint shipments from Europe to Hong Kong are planned from 2018.
Said Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr: "Cathay Pacific Airways and the Lufthansa Group, two of the world's leading aviation groups, are forming a ground-breaking partnership."
