United Airlines passengers are now able to book travel on 68 Vistara-operated flights to more than two dozen destinations across India, thanks to a new codeshare agreement between the two airlines. Top destinations now available to United passengers include Ahmedabad (AMD), Bengaluru (BLR), Chandigarh (IXC), Goa (GOI), Hyderabad (HYD), Jodhpur (JDH), Udaipur (UDR) and Varanasi (VNS).

Vistara is India’s highest-rated airline on Skytrax and TripAdvisor. The airline plans to grow its service and fleet through 2023 with the addition of more than 50 aircraft, including Airbus A321neo and Boeing 787-9 aircraft.

“We are excited to offer our shared customers the option of building a seamless itinerary when planning travel to cities beyond New Delhi (DEL) and Mumbai (BOM),” said John Gebo, senior vice president of alliances, United Airlines. “United has connected customers to India for more than 15 years with daily flights between New York (JFK/LGA) [and] Newark (EWR) and Delhi and Mumbai and our new service between San Francisco (SFO) and New Delhi. Our relationship with Vistara opens up even more options for customers to travel between our East and West Coast hubs and multiple destinations throughout India.”

“Vistara today connects the length and breadth of India and we are delighted to offer the country’s only 5-star flying experience to customers of United on Indian domestic flights. The United States continues to be one of the biggest source markets for foreign travelers into India and the region and this partnership allows us to provide a seamless travel offering for customers to and from the United States,” added Vinod Kannan, chief commercial officer, Vistara.
