The upcoming codeshare on Ethiopian Airlines’ intra-Africa flights to the three African cities and Singapore Airlines’ flights to Australia is subject to regulatory approvals.
The airlines have been codesharing since November 2011 on flights between Addis Ababa and Dubai, and between Singapore and Dubai. The agreement was expanded in October 2012 to include flights between Addis Ababa and New Delhi, and between Singapore and New Delhi. Both airlines also expanded codesharing on flights between Addis Ababa and Bangkok, and between Singapore and Bangkok in July this year.
