Taiwan's leading carrier China Airlines (CAL) said Thursday it has expanded code-sharing services with US-based Delta Air Lines since August 1.
China Airlines has added three round-trip sectors to the two airlines' code-sharing program — from Los Angeles to Hartford, Columbus and Raleigh/Durham.
Under the latest code-sharing plans, CAL's operations in the US will cover East and West Coast markets, as well as the Midwest and South.
Meanwhile, Delta codes will be used for CAL flights from Anchorage, Honolulu, Los Angeles, New York (JFK), San Francisco and Seattle to Taipei, as well as onwards to Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.
Delta codes will also be used for CAL flights from Tokyo to Taipei, it added.
The two carriers first launched two-way codeshare cooperation on trans-Pacific services in May, 2004.
CAL currently serves 62 passenger and cargo destinations in 23 countries.
