Agreement builds on previous relationship

All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Singapore Airlines (SIA) will begin operating revenue-sharing flights between Singapore and Japan beginning September 2025, with the joint fare products for these services going on sale in May 2025, further deepening their commercial partnership.

This arrangement, said an announcement, will enable the airlines to offer customers additional value beyond the existing codeshare partnerships with a greater variety of fare options, enhanced coordination of flight schedules between Singapore and Japan and seamless connectivity between the Star Alliance carriers.

Both airlines are also working to offer enhanced reciprocal benefits for ANA Mileage Club and KrisFlyer frequent flyer members, including the ability to earn miles on an expanded number of booking classes. Both airlines will also work to align corporate programs to bolster the offering to business travelers.

Subject to regulatory approvals, ANA and SIA also intend to expand the scope of the joint venture to include other key markets beyond Japan and Singapore such as Australia, India, Indonesia and Malaysia.

Since signing their commercial joint venture agreement in January 2020, the two carriers have significantly expanded their codeshare arrangement, offering customers more travel options.

ANA customers have access to 25 destinations across Singapore’s network, up from 12 previously. Singapore customers can seamlessly connect to 34 destinations across ANA’s network, up from nine previously, including ANA’s domestic flights to 30 destinations in Japan.

Shinichi Inoue, CEO of ANA, said the joint venture “is more than a strategic alliance, it embodies ANA’s vision to usher in a new era of customer experience that redefines expectations.” Through this powerful synergy of two leading Asian airline brands, he said, “we are confident that we will set a new benchmark for service and customer experience that will change the way passengers view air travel.”

Goh Choon Phong, Singapore’s CEO, said the joint fare products, revenue-sharing flights, and expanded codeshare arrangements are just the start. “As we align our frequent flyer and corporate travel programs and add more markets to our commercial joint venture agreement,” he said, “we can offer even greater value, better connectivity and an exceptional experience for customers traveling between Singapore and Japan, and beyond.”
