Lufthansa Group-Singapore Airlines JV Part 2: Lufthansa targets Indonesia with JV, Garuda interline
Lufthansa Group is aiming to increase sales in Indonesia through a new codeshare with Singapore Airlines (SIA) and SilkAir, along with a new interline with Garuda Indonesia. Lufthansa suspended one-stop services from Frankfurt to Jakarta in late 2015, but should be able to serve the fast-growing Indonesian market better through partnerships.
Indonesia is one of eight markets covered under the new joint venture between Lufthansa and Singapore Airlines. However, Lufthansa does not want to rely entirely on the JV to cover Indonesia and has just implemented a new special prorate agreement with Garuda.
Indonesia is Lufthansa's second largest offline market in Southeast Asia after Malaysia. Lufthansa is also using the new JV with SIA to cover Malaysia, as it dropped services to Kuala Lumpur in early 2016.
