Eastern Airways have announced a codeshare deal with Azerbaijan Airlines based around Azerbaijan's Aberdeen-Baku route. From the press release Azerbaijan will codeshare on connecting Eastern Airways flights from Aberdeen while Eastern will codeshare on Azerbaijan's Baku service
Might sound odd at first but with Eastern's focus on oil and gas markets, the target of Azerbaijan's ABZ service, it makes very good sense. One thing that will limit the effectiveness of connections though is that one of Azerbaijan's two weekly flights is on Sunday morning, when T3 operate no scheduled services.

AFAIK this is only Eastern's second codeshare deal, the first being Air Southwest
