The strategic alliance is aimed at capturing the surge in passenger traffic to Thailand by offering travelers in secondary cities access to non-stop flights to Thailand's top destinations.

This collaboration is the first milestone in our plan to expand service to the fast growing Chinese market," said Captain John Ross, Jet Asia's VP of Operations.
