Air India and Singapore Airlines broaden partnership, adding standalone bookings for 126 weekly flights

From October 15, Air India and Singapore Airlines will let passengers book individual flights on each other's platforms, covering 126 weekly services between Singapore and eight Indian cities.

Air India and Singapore Airlines announced an extension of their commercial cooperation under the framework agreement established in January. Effective October 15, travelers will be able to purchase flights operated solely by either airline through the other's reservation system, removing the previous codeshare pairing rule. The expanded service will offer 126 weekly flights connecting Singapore with eight major Indian destinations: Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata and Mumbai.

This change aims to provide more flexible itinerary options for passengers. Singapore Airlines continues to hold a 25.1% ownership interest in Air India. The move is part of broader efforts to deepen the airlines' partnership and boost traffic between the two countries.

Why it matters

The new booking flexibility increases travel options and could boost passenger traffic between India and Singapore.
