This week, Juneyao Airlines became the first airline to expand the Star Alliance network as a connecting partner.
Under the alliance’s partnership agreement, the Shanghai-based airline offers Star Alliance passengers new transfer options at Shanghai’s two airports — Pudong International (PVG) and Hongqiao International (SHA).
Qualifying Star Alliance Gold Status passengers can enjoy privileges on connecting flights including lounge access, fast-track security, additional baggage, priority check-in and boarding and priority baggage delivery.
“With Juneyao Airlines as a Connecting Partner we have achieved two important goals,” said Jeffrey Goh, CEO, Star Alliance. “First, as an alliance we can offer regional airlines an attractive way to connect to our global alliance network, without requiring full membership. Going forward, this will enable us to strategically enhance our network. Second, with Juneyao Airlines we strengthen our market position in Shanghai, a city which is already served by 17 of our member airlines and which will now offer even better connectivity to our customers.”
Star Alliance member airlines including Air Canada, Air China, Air India, Air New Zealand, All Nippon Airways, Singapore Airlines and Asiana Airlines operate more than 1,600 weekly services in and out of China, serving 64 destinations in 19 countries. Juneyao Airlines passengers now have access to this extensive network.
