By Elena Kosolapova - Trend:

Kazakhstan's national carrier Air Astana signed a codeshare agreement with Chinese Hong Kong Airlines, the Kazakh airline said Jan. 29.

A codeshare agreement is an arrangement between airlines that agree to share space with each other on certain flights in their schedules. This means that each airline publishes and markets the flight under its own airline designator and flight number as part of its published timetable or schedule.

"From now on, the passengers of Air Astana will be able to book tickets of both airlines in order to travel to the destinations where Hong Kong Airlines flies, such as China, Japan, Indonesia, Taiwan and Vietnam," said the airline.

Thus, the number of Air Astana's codeshare partners has increased to seven.

Air Astana has been operating since 2002, and today it has a fleet of 30 aircraft of western production.

Its route network includes over 60 international and regional destinations.
