According to reports, Jet Airways is all set to resume domestic operations with its first flight from New Delhi to Mumbai by Quarter 1 of 2022, while its international flights will be operational by the second half of next year.
The first of these flights will be on the Delhi-Mumbai route. Moreover, Jet Airways will shift its base to Delhi NCR instead of Mumbai. Meanwhile, after launching domestic services in the first quarter of 2022, Jet Airways plans to launch some international routes in the third and fourth quarters.
Speaking about the same, lead member of the London-based Jalan Kalrock Consortium said, "Jet Airways 2.0 aims at restarting domestic operations by Q1-2022, and short-haul international operations by Q3/Q4 2022. Our plan is to have 50+ aircraft in 3 years and 100+ in 5 years which also fits perfectly well with the short-term and long-term business plan of the Consortium,"
"It is the first time in the history of Aviation that an airline grounded for more than 2 years is being revived and we are looking forward to being a part of this historic journey," Mr Jalan added.
The airline, once India's biggest private carrier, was forced to ground all flights in April 2019, owing billions to lenders and leaving thousands without a job due to crippling losses amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
