(CAPA): Royal Jordanian and Malev Hungarian Airline announced a codeshare agreement covering twice weekly service for Amman to Budapest, which Royal Jordanian will launch from 28 July 2007. Based on the wide-ranging codeshare agreement both airlines have already started the sales activity regarding the new Amman-Budapest route.

In future, this relationship between the two new oneworld members will extend to other services, allowing passengers to purchase tickets to destinations that have never before featured in the Hungarian carrier’s route network.

Travelling via Amman, the Jordanian coastal resort of Aqaba and two gems of the United Arab Emirates, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, will become accessible from Budapest. The world-famous metropolises of Bombay and Delhi in India join the network in 2008. At the same time, new opportunities open up for customers of Royal Jordanian through the Malev route network as the Hungarian company adds the Jordanian carrier code to 12 of its services, including Berlin and Copenhagen.

The direct codeshare Royal Jordanian-Malev service operated by the Jordanian party links the two capitals twice a week, although the carriers are able to offer a daily connection with a transfer in either Athens or Istanbul.

Malev and Royal Jordanian joined oneworld, the world’s leading airline alliance, on 1 April 2007.
