Qatar Airways strengthened its relationship with fellow oneworld member S7 Airlines, with the implementation of additional codeshare routes across its network. It is noteworthy to mention that AACO is facilitating bilateral meetings between AACO member airlines on 31 May – 2 June 2015 at Routes Middle East & Africa 2015 in Bah- rain where member airlines will have the opportunity to bilaterally discuss various commercial agreements during the 3-day event.
