Turkish Airlines recently signed a Freesale Codeshare Agreement with Brazilian TAM Airlines and the codeshare flights between the two airlines will begin very soon. Within the scope of the agreement, both carriers will be able to market designated flights on the partner airline.
The codeshare agreement enables Turkish Airlines to use its marketing flight code “TK” for travel from Sao Paulo to Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Iguassu Falls, Porto Alegre and Brasilia on flights operated by TAM. In addition, “TK” marketing flight code will be added to flights from Sao Paulo to Madrid.
Meanwhile, TAM Airlines will be able to put its marketing flight code “JJ” on Turkish Airlines’ flights between Istanbul -Sao Paulo and Istanbul —Madrid.
This agreement will allow Turkish Airlines’ passengers direct access to more destinations in Brazil and Argentina. TAM Airlines operates direct flights to 43 destinations in Brazil and 19 cities in Latin America, the United States and Europe. Brazil will host the next Fifa World Cup, in 2014, and the Olympic Games in 2016.
