Low prices aren’t Frontier’s only priority. Customers have the option to tailor their trip according to their needs and financial constraints thanks to the carrier. Customers can, for instance, buy options individually or as part of a bargain package called the WORKS. Refundability, a carry-on bag, a checked bag, the best seat available, waived change costs, and priority boarding are all included in this package.
Virgin Atlantic and IndiGo have increased their codesharing, giving frequent travellers more options and opening up a number of new destinations throughout India. Codesharing is frequently an agreement between airlines to resell seats on each other’s flights, expanding the present footprint.
Customers may now buy tickets, making it simple for them to travel from places like Varanasi, Srinagar, Goa, and Lucknow to London and other destinations via Delhi and Mumbai. Virgin Atlantic passengers have shown a special affinity for Goa’s stunning beaches. The expanded collaboration will include Goa’s second airport at Mopa, giving travellers even greater access to one of their favourite places.
With more opportunities to earn Virgin Points and Tier Points on every codeshare flight with IndiGo, Virgin Atlantic’s Flying Club members can accomplish their rewards faster with the increased codeshare.
“With IndiGo’s codeshare agreement, we are thrilled to more than double the number of destinations we can provide. As a result, our clients have even more options when travelling to and from India “said Alex McEwan, Virgin Atlantic’s country manager for South Asia.
“We offer a variety of connections to and from India’s most well-liked destinations by combining IndiGo’s extensive network with Virgin Atlantic’s three daily trips between India and the UK,” added McEwan.

On 27 March 2023, the two low-cost airlines moved to a single, unified reservations system and website, and adopted common social media and customer support channels. This migration, which largely involved Air India Express migrating to the systems used by AirAsia India, confers significant capability and efficiency benefits for the airline and passengers.

In the coming months, the airlines will continue integrating other internal systems and, eventually, their air operating permits and regulatory posts.

Here are some of the most important factors that airlines consider when setting ticket prices:
To find cheap flights, there are several strategies you can use:
- Be flexible with your travel dates: By being flexible with your travel dates, you can often find better deals as prices can vary greatly depending on the day of the week, time of year, and other factors.
- Book in advance: Booking your flight well in advance can often result in better prices, as airlines will typically offer lower prices for tickets booked further in advance.
- Look for deals and discounts: Airlines will often offer special deals and discounts on flights, so it’s worth checking their websites and signing up for their newsletters to stay informed.
- Use flight search engines: Flight search engines like Skyscanner, Kayak, and Google Flights can help you find the cheapest flights available by comparing prices across multiple airlines and dates.
- Consider alternative airports: Flying into or out of smaller airports can often be cheaper than larger airports, so it’s worth considering alternative airports if they are within a reasonable distance.
Emirates’ flagship A380 made a landmark touchdown at Christchurch Airport today, marking the resumption of its daily service from Dubai to Christchurch via Sydney after more than three years.
The special service was greeted by a crowd of spectators at the Christchurch Airport boundary, who watched as the iconic aircraft taxied through a ceremonial water canon salute, before parking in view of trade, media, and VIP guests at the international terminal.
Outbound EK412 left Dubai at 10:15 local time, stopping briefly in Sydney before arriving in Christchurch at 13:55 hours the next day, New Zealand time. The resumption of the Dubai to Christchurch route headlines a planned ramping up of seating capacity across Emirates’ global network, after boosting operations 31% (total ASKMs) since the beginning of its financial year. This operational boost included the re-introduction of Emirates’ nonstop A380 route from Auckland to Dubai in December of last year.
Emirates’ A380 return to Christchurch is also welcome news for South Island producers, with SkyCargo again supporting the export of 15 to 18 tonnes of daily goods across the Tasman. The airfreight will provided much-needed airfreight from a broad range of exporters, including Central Otago cherries, prime New Zealand lamb, and premium seafood, as they continue on to destinations around the world.
Both North and South Island customers will now have direct access to daily Emirates A380 services, providing greater levels of flexibility and choice when making travel plans and providing seamless connectivity and reduced transit time when travelling to other destinations across the airline’s global network, including destinations in Europe and the Middle East. Travellers looking to venture beyond the airline’s gateways will also have more connection opportunities to 55 cities across Australia and New Zealand through Emirates’ long-standing partnership with Qantas.
Restart of Christchurch via Sydney
The A380 flight operates as EK 412 and EK 413. Emirates flight EK 412 departs Dubai at 1015hrs, arriving in Sydney at 0700hrs.

The final leg of EK 413 will depart to Dubai at 2145hrs, arriving at 0515hrs local time.
Customers in Christchurch will not only be able to enjoy the airline’s flagship aircraft, but will also experience the debut of the highly sought-after Premium Economy cabin and latest products across every class of travel.
