Etihad asks court for more time for disputed Air Berlin code shares | GulfNews.com:
"Etihad Airways has asked a German court for more time to continue code sharing with Air Berlin on 29 routes while it appeals a decision that will block it from operating the flights after January 15, it said on Thursday.
A court in Brunswick last week said Etihad may not continue to jointly sell tickets for 29 routes operated by Air Berlin, in which Etihad owns a 29 per cent stake, because they were not covered by the current air traffic rights agreement between Germany and the UAE.
The code shares are important for Air Berlin as it tries to return to profitability after years of losses. Such deals allow carriers to offer more destinations as part of their network, reaching more customers and thus helping to fill planes and boost revenues."
