Air Seychelles and airberlin SIGN LANDMARK codeshare agreement



Air Seychelles, the national airline of the Republic of Seychelles, and airberlin, Europe’s seventh largest airline, today signed a historic codeshare agreement allowing customers from each of the two carriers to fly seamlessly between Abu Dhabi, Germany, and Seychelles.

Initially, the agreement, which comes into effect immediately, will see Air Seychelles’ HM code placed on four of airberlin’s daily return services between Abu Dhabi and Berlin, Düsseldorf complementing the island carrier’s existing 26 weekly codeshare connections with Etihad Airways to Frankfurt, Munich and Düsseldorf.

airberlin will initially place its AB code on four of Air Seychelles’ weekly return flights to Abu Dhabi from the Seychelles, complementing the German carrier’s existing four codeshare connections to Seychelles with Etihad Airways providing passengers a daily connection from Germany to Mahé.

Air Seychelles and airberlin are both members of the Etihad Airways strategic equity alliance, with the Abu Dhabi-based airline holding a 40 per cent stake in the island carrier and 29.21 per cent stake in Germany’s second largest airline.

The new codeshare arrangement will give European travellers immediate access to a total of 38 flights a week to Seychelles from four German hubs (Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Munich) on the combined airberlin, Air Seychelles and Etihad Airways network. 

The total number of flights a week between Germany and Seychelles will leap to 54 flights a week when the new Etihad Airways and Air Seychelles schedules take effect from March 24.

The partnership between airberlin and Air Seychelles allows both companies’ passengers to book and travel with just one ticket for their entire journey via Abu Dhabi.

Cramer Ball, Air Seychelles’ Chief Executive Officer, said: “More than 28,000 German tourists visited Seychelles in 2012, a 20 per cent increase over 2011. Germany is among our island’s fastest growing markets so these new air links are vital to our tourism sector, the Seychelles’ most important industry.

“The double-digit growth we are seeing from our new tourist markets supports our government’s vision for a national airline that connects Seychelles to key markets while delivering world-class service with unique Creole warmth.

“We are confident the new connections and seamless flight experience will appeal to German travellers and ultimately deliver a new source of revenue, continuing Air Seychelles progress toward sustainable profitability in 2013 and beyond.

“Our partnership with our 40 per cent shareholder, Etihad Airways, is driving new growth as we capitalize not only on economies of scale, but also their relationships with other airlines. We can work together to identify partners which will optimally expand the reach of Air Seychelles across the globe, airberlin being a prime example.”

Wolfgang Prock-Schauer, Chief Executive Officer of airberlin, said: "The codeshare agreement with Air Seychelles is equally important for airberlin in a number of ways. Firstly, we are able to make our route network even more attractive by enhancing the number of weekly codeshare connections to the Seychelles. Secondly, the new agreement once again illustrates the enormous potential that the partnership with Etihad Airways offers in terms of the joint marketing of the route network and the targeted use of synergies across all areas."
Subject to regulatory approval, the airlines plan to expand the scope of the agreement to include more destinations on their respective networks and implement frequent flyer program reciprocity.
Tickets can be purchased online via airseychelles.com or airberlin.com. Alternatively, guests can buy tickets by calling Air Seychelles’ Call Centre at +248 4 38 10 13 or airberlin’s Service Centre at +49 30/3434 34 (local rates apply) and through the airlines’ sales offices or a travel agent.

Donkey indeed. Michel has given up any influence in Air Seychelles. He has sold out to Khalifa and we are being used like a donkey.

The flights will have to be so cheap like 400.00 to work.

Once the German figures out the hubbing is 28 hours, each way, they will send us up a camel's ass.

Pp said"The double -digit growth we are seeing from our new tourist market support our ogvenremnt's vision for a National Airline that connects Seychelles to key markets while delivery world class services with unique Croele qwarmth".

Firstly,St Ange new Toruist market has not been successful--no Brazilain ,Tourists and Arabs no having Holiday as part of their culture are no that consequent either.

Our Key Markets St Ange ,are the ones we always have namely EUROPE,it has always been this way thus it is not new.Germany arrival as that of Euroepan countires ahve always been the highest,and that Geramny provide a high eprecentage of TUorsits is not a miracle for GErman is known as the world biggest tourist providers Worldwild.

Seychellois unique warmth,is when we have Seychelloi crew crew on our Airlines ,that give tourist the Creole Warmth:Airline is now crewd by ONE SINGLE SEYCHELLOPIOS and all Arabs ,this has nothing to do with CREOLE warmth,CROELE can only be given by CROLES.

The Deal while allows Airline to have better access to EUrope and since being shareholder with Air berlin will allow Airsey to avoid Landing cost also extra cost(such as Corabon tax being focred by Euroepean on Airlines),our Airline is not promoting our Island thus toursim industry as it should.

St Ange and PP must know that Seychllois will ahve pride in their Airline when it promote Seychelles ,when it is promote aborad in countries where our main market is ,not between Afirca and Arab world.When Seychellois will form the total of the crew on board not Arabs etc...

Airsey remains a donkey of Ethihad and as in all deals the main investor is always the real winner.

The deal will benefit Air Berlin not AirSey(though tourist arrival will get a boost).Air Berlin is also an Airline operating in the red and struggling to flight out of negative territories.Struggling to compensate negative earning effects ,Its CEO Hartmut Mehdorn said TICKET PRICE would rise this year 2013.We will then have to wait to see what would Air Berlin price be.Higher than AirSey or less?

The airline according to experts will be affected further by the delay in the contruction of the new interantional Airport.
Air Berlin is also cutting on job this year will amount up to 900 jobs would be lost and so forth.

(Reuters) - German airline Air Berlin (AB1.DE), part-owned by Abu Dhabi-based carrier Etihad, plans to cut almost 10 percent of its workforce of 9,300 as part of a cost-cutting campaign aimed at halting years of losses.

Air Berlin, Germany's second-biggest airline after Lufthansa (LHAG.DE), said on Tuesday its new restructuring program announced in October would seek annual savings of 400 million euros ($535 million) from the end of 2014.

The program will entail cutting 900 jobs and leave the airline to concentrate on its most profitable routes with more flights to be offered to popular destinations like Majorca.

It also said it would expand long-haul services from Berlin and Duesseldorf. Airports in Vienna, Hamburg, Munich, Zurich and Stuttgart will remain primary bases for Air Berlin planes.

The company also aims to further cut its fleet of aircraft to 142 this year, from 158 at the end of September 2012.

Air Berlin, which has not posted a full-year operating profit since 2007, has already cut seats, unprofitable routes and postponed plane orders to reduce costs and shrink its way back to profitability after racking up debts to expand.
