ITA Airways has been busy expanding its codeshare partnerships this week, unveiling a new agreement with Aeromexico and plans to broaden cooperation with Emirates.
From 10 March ITA Airways customers will have access to 28 destinations operated by Aeromexico from Mexico City International Airport, while Aeromexico passengers can connect via Rome Fiumicino to 15 destinations within Italy.
As well as single ticket and through checked baggage benefits, customers will also be able to accrue and redeem points on flights operated by both carriers.
Meanwhile ITA and Emirates have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to expand their existing interline agreement into a full codeshare partnership.
The plans will see Emirates customers gain access to Italian destinations including Florence, Genoa, Palermo and Trieste via Rome, while ITA Airways passengers will be able to connect to Emirates’ extensive route network via Dubai.
The MoU will also seek to extend reciprocal loyalty benefits through both airlines’ frequent flyer programmes “at a later stage”.
The two agreements bring ITA Airways’ codeshare network to 36 partners since the carrier was launched in 2021.
