July 1 (SeeNews) - Flag carriers Air Serbia and Air Seychelles, signed on Friday a codeshare agreement making it easier for travellers to fly to the tropical islands of Seychelles, Air Serbia said.
Air Seychelles is the 17th codeshare partner of Air Serbia, also a member of Etihad Airways Partners.
The new codeshare deal will see Air Serbia place its JU flight code on four routes operated by Air Seychelles, from Paris and Abu Dhabi to Mahe, the largest island in the Seychelles, as well as from Mahe to Johannesburg and Praslin.
It will provide Air Serbia passengers with better connectivity to the Seychelles and South Africa. They will also be able to take advantage of flights with Air Seychelles to two popular destinations in the Indian Ocean - Mauritius and Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar.
The new codeshare agreement complements an existing codeshare between Air Serbia and Etihad Airways for flights to Seychelles over Abu Dhabi, expanding the flight options available to travellers who are planning to travel to the archipelago.
