Virgin America and Taiwan's China Airlines have agreed on a new interline partnership, allowing passengers on both airlines to travel across their respective North American and Asian routes.

China Airlines is Virgin America's 11th interline partner.

The partnership allows connecting passengers to purchase interline tickets for travel between the US, Taiwan and beyond, effective last month.

Under the deal, China Airlines provides service from Taipei, Taiwan to Los Angeles and San Francisco airport. Also, passengers of both airlines can travel between Taipei and Virgin America destinations including Boston, Fort Lauderdale, Philadelphia, New York and Washington DC.

Adam Green, Virgin America's director of network planning says: "Strategic partnerships like this one with China Airlines are critical to driving connections over our San Francisco and Los Angeles airport bases."
