Virgin Atlantic launches Korea airline codeshare

Tuesday, 26 Mar, 2023 0

Virgin Atlantic announced a new codeshare agreement with Korean Air.

It offers customers more options to South Korea and beyond.

The first phase now allows customers booking through Virgin Atlantic to travel directly to Incheon Airport.

By June, customers can connect from Seoul to destinations throughout Japan, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand.

The codeshare with Korean Air is a first step before Virgin Atlantic’s entry to Seoul.

From May, services to Shanghai, China resume, alongside an expanded codeshare with IndiGo throughout India.

With Virgin Atlantic’s recent enrolment in the SkyTeam alliance, customers can earn and redeem Virgin Points and SkyPriority benefits.

Korean Air is one of the founding members of the SkyTeam alliance.

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members enjoy SkyPriority services at Seoul Incheon, including priority check in, baggage handling and boarding.

Juha Jarvinen Virgin Atlantic CCO said: “We’re pleased to launch a codeshare with Korean Air, as we know such agreements bring an array of benefits to our customers.”

“Customers benefit from its extensive route network, with more choice throughout Asia and Australasia.”
