Southwest Airlines Partners with Philippine Airlines for Expanded Travel Options
In an exciting development for travelers, Southwest Airlines has officially launched its interline partnership with Philippine Airlines. This marks Southwest’s fourth interline collaboration this year, alongside previous partnerships with Icelandair, Eva Air, and China Airlines.
Enhanced Connectivity Across the Pacific
The newly established interline agreement is designed to streamline travel connections between Southwest Airlines and Philippine Airlines, creating more accessibility for passengers. This connection will primarily route through key cities including Honolulu, Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Philippine Airlines services these destinations from its main hub located in Manila.
Booking Made Easier
Travelers can now make single-itinerary bookings through Philippine Airlines directly, as well as via third-party channels, including Global Distribution Systems (GDSs). However, it is important to note that these bookings cannot be made through Southwest’s own booking channels.
Expanded Travel Opportunities
Southwest Airlines emphasizes that this partnership significantly enhances travel options across the Pacific. With the addition of Philippine Airlines to its interline roster, travelers can look forward to a wider array of flight paths and itineraries. This collaboration not only expands the network for current Southwest customers but also invites Philippine Airlines’ customers to explore more destinations across the U.S.
Whether you are planning a vacation or business trip, this interline partnership opens up numerous possibilities for seamless travel between the United States and the Philippines.
