Kuwait airways and SriLankan airlines sign codeshare agreement

Dhaka: In a move to con­sol­id­ate its global net­work of des­tin­a­tions and provide diverse travel options to its val­ued cus­tom­ers, Kuwait Air­ways has announced the strength­en­ing of its code share agree­ment with Sri­Lankan Air­lines.

The agree­ment will strengthen cooper­a­tion by includ­ing the Kuwait Air­ways’ code on Sri­Lankan Air­lines’ flights oper­at­ing to sev­eral key des­tin­a­tions in Asia, namely Malé and Gan in the Mal­dives, Singa­pore, and Kuala Lum­pur, Malay­sia.

This will provide Kuwait Air­ways pas­sen­gers seam­less access to pop­u­lar tour­ism and busi­ness hubs within the com­pany’s net­work.

Like­wise, Sri­Lankan Air­lines will include its code on numer­ous des­tin­a­tions oper­ated by Kuwait Air­way­s­in­clud­ing Lon­don, United King­dom, Rome, Italy, as well as Tbil­isi, Geor­gia, and Baku, Azerbaijan, provid­ing Sri­Lankan Air­lines’ cus­tom­ers with a new gate­way to Europe via Kuwait.

On this occa­sion, Kuwait Air­ways Chair­man, Cap­tain Abdul­mohsen Salem Al-Fagaan, stated, “Sri­Lankan Air­lines isan import­ant stra­tegic part­ner for Kuwait Air­ways.

This cooper­a­tion reflects our com­mit­ment as the national car­rier of the State of Kuwait to provid­ing a diverse net­work of des­tin­a­tions. Our goal is to provide our val­ued cus­tom­ers with a seam­less, integ­rated travel exper­i­ence.”

Al-Fagaan added that this ini­ti­at­ive aligns with Kuwait Air­ways’ vis­ion to rein­force Kuwait’s pos­i­tion as a vital hub link­ing East and West. 

He also noted that Kuwait Air­ways launched its sched­uled flights to Colombo, Sri Lanka in Octo­ber, as part of its winter cam­paign, oper­at­ing four flights per week.

Al-Fagaan poin­ted out that Kuwait Air­ways will enable pas­sen­gers to make reser­va­tions via the Cus­tomer Ser­vice Call Cen­ter (171) and the com­pany’s vari­ous sales offices, in addi­tion to the com­pany’s web­site and elec­tronic applic­a­tion.

Al-Fagaan expressed his sin­cere hope that the agree­ment would con­trib­ute to attract­ing new seg­ments of trav­el­ers, whether trav­el­ling for tour­ism or busi­ness, by offer­ing flex­ible options through uni­fied book­ing sys­tems and stream­lined travel pro­ced­ures.

He explained that the agree­ment is part of a broader strategy by Kuwait Air­ways to strengthen its global alli­ances in sup­port of its future expan­sion plans, while deliv­er­ing value­ad­ded ser­vices to cus­tom­ers across vari­ous mar­kets.
