Jet Airways customers can now fly seamlessly to Pu Dong and Kunming cities in China from India as the country's second largest airline by marketshare has commenced its reciprocal codeshare flights with China Eastern Airlines from today.

In turn, Chinese passengers will have a direct connectivity to Bengaluru, Kolkata and Mumbai from New Delhi through the flights operated by the leading Indian private carrier.

As part of the codeshare partnership, China Eastern Airlines will operate Jet Airways' Delhi-Shanghai Pu Dong and Kolkata-Kuming routes whereas the Naresh Goyal-owned full service carrier will operate Delhi-Bengaluru, Delhi-Kolkata and and Delhi-Mumbai routes of the Shanghai-based airline.

When contacted, a Jet Airways spokesperson confirmed the commencement of the reciprocal codeshare air services with the Chinese carrier.

Codesharing allows an airline to book on its passenger on its partner carriers and provide seamless transport to destination where it has no presence whereas an interline arrangement refers to a pact to issue and accept tickets for flights that are operated by the partner airline.

China Eastern Airlines, which has three subsidiaries as well a cargo carrier and is a member of the global airlines grouping SkyyTeam, operates to 217 destinations through its hub at Shanghai Pudon International airport.

Besides, it has secondary hubs at Beijing, Kunming; Xi'an and Qingdao.
