Rex begins Etihad interline agreement
Australia regional carrier Rex has inaugurated its new interline flights partnership with Gulf carrier, Etihad Airways.
The partnership provides passengers on Rex’s domestic routes convenient connections with Etihad’s global network.
“Partnering with an airline like Etihad brings a new era of choice and connection for Rex passengers,” said Rex’s GM of Network Strategy, Warrick Lodge.
“Passengers will be able to fly to either Sydney or Melbourne on Rex and thereafter connect on Etihad to a further 72 destinations across the globe.”
Etihad’s extensive international network spans Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the US.
Passengers’ entire journey connecting between Etihad and Rex flights, can be booked under one booking with through-check baggage where permitted.
Arik De, Etihad’s Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer said: “This new interline flight partnership significantly expands connectivity options for Etihad guests, providing them with effortless access from our gateways in Sydney and Melbourne.“
“Equally, we are thrilled to extend a warm welcome to Rex customers.”
Rex regional flights are bookable on Etihad’s website, and via travel agents and OTAs.
This marks Rex’s second interline flight agreement.
The airline has an existing interline partnership with Delta Air Lines.
