Russia’s leading domestic airline, S7 Airlines, is to join oneworld®, the world’s leading quality airline alliance.
After being unanimously elected on board by the grouping’s existing ten member airlines, which include some of the best and biggest names in the industry, S7 will become part of one world, offering the alliance’s full range of services, benefits and fares, during 2010.
As a first step, its network will be added from 1 June to the Global Explorer round-the-world fare offered by all oneworld member airlines and selected carriers that are not part of the alliance. British Airways (BA) will support S7 through its 18-month alliance implementation program, as its one world sponsor.
Its addition to oneworld will link one of the most extensive networks covering Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), with one world’s unrivaled global network, as the only alliance including airlines based on every continent. Continues
