British Airways and Vistara celebrate commencement of their first codeshare flight from India

September 27, 2018: British Airways and Vistara cabin crew celebrated their first codeshare flight from India. To expand their network in the Indian market, British Airways and Vistara announced a strategic partnership earlier this month.

The agreement means that British Airways will add its ‘British Airways’ designator code to Vistara flights in India, enabling customers to connect seamlessly with Vistara to 13 new destinations across India, opening up cities such as Ahmedabad, Amritsar, Bhubaneswar, Chandigarh, Goa, Kolkata, Kochi, and Pune, that had previously been more difficult to access from the UK.

British Airways currently operates 49 flights a week between London Heathrow and five key cities in India namely Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad . Vistara flights operate from the same terminal as British Airways at Delhi (T3) and Mumbai (T2), making connections at these airports even more convenient.
