Virgin Atlantic Airways has agreed a new reciprocal codeshare deal with Air China (CA) to enable its passengers to enjoy codeshare connections between the services of the two carriers.
Effective on flights from 1 July 2006, the agreement with Air China means that Virgin Atlantic passengers will be able to purchase flights between London Heathrow and Beijing, complimenting Virgin Atlantic´s daily flights into Shanghai.
Air China will codeshare on Virgin Atlantic´s daily services between London Heathrow and Shanghai. Tickets will be on sale from April 15.
In addition to the codeshare agreement a frequent flyer miles deal will be in place, which means that Virgin Atlantic´s Flying Club members will earn miles when they travel with Air China.
