Delta, Air France plan joint venture

Delta Air Lines and Air France are involved in talks regarding a joint venture, according to Air France officials.

A report in the French financial daily newspaper Les Echos has alluded to the joint venture, saying that "the agreement being negotiated should be signed in the autumn".

It stated that the deal would "allow both carriers to go well beyond their current partnership and include a 50-50 split of profits on their main trans-Atlantic routes".

In response to the Les Echos claims, a Spokeswoman for Air France told the AFP news agency that the airline was "still in negotiations with Delta, but nothing has been finalized".

The Les Echos report went on to refer to the recently signed Open Skies agreement, which allows greater freedom in transatlantic air travel.

It is thought that the joint venture would apply to flights between New York JFK and Paris, as well as from other US cities to London Heathrow.
