American Airlines and Canadian low-cost carrier WestJet are expanding their relationship by introducing reciprocal frequent flier opportunities.

Under the pact, members of both airlines's frequent flyer programme can earn miles when travelling on flights operated by the other carrier.

This expanded relationship is in addition to the codeshare agreement American and WestJet currently have in place.

Currently, the two airlines' cooperative relationship provides American's customers with codeshare service on 43 routes operated by WestJet, and provides WestJet's customers with codeshare service on 61 routes operated by American and American Eagle.
