According to new guidelines, domestic airlines need to obtain government approval before entering into any code-sharing agreement with foreign carriers. This is seen as a move to protect AI’s interests.

A Jet Airways spokeswoman said there was no such move. "There is no truth in the information. The airline is, however, evaluating various options," she said.

Lufthansa's support for Jet's Star Alliance entry upsets govt
NEW DELHI: The civil aviation ministry is annoyed with German carrier Lufthansa for its apparent backing of Jet Airways for inclusion into Star Alliance — a route-sharing club comprising a score of carriers from across the world — while state-run Air India is still waiting in the wings, a government official here said.
Lufthansa’s support is important as it is the nodal member in the alliance. Following instructions from the civil aviation ministry, the Indian embassy in Germany has now written to Lufthansa, pointing out that the carrier’s move to back Jet Airways would put Air India (AI) at a disadvantage.
The government has reason to be upset with Lufthansa because it earlier contrived a quid-pro-quo agreement between Air India and Star Alliance. Under this agreement, Star Alliance was to give membership to AI.
