Avianca Brazil and Ethiopian Airlines, both member of Star Alliance, have signed a code-share agreement to introduce code-share services between Brazil, Ethiopia, and future points beyond Ethiopia.

Through this partnership Avianca Brazil will add its code (O6) to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia connecting Brazil to Africa with the possibility for expansion to China and other viable Asian destinations.

On a reciprocal basis, the largest African carrier, Ethiopian, will be able to reach more destinations in Brazil through Avianca Brazil network under ET code.

Upon completion of formalities, more details of the partnership, such as the routes involved and the date of implementation will be announced.

Currently, members of Avianca’s Amigo loyalty program can already earn points and issue tickets on Ethiopian flights.
