JetLite to fly daily to Dubai from Nagpur
At a time when air turbine
fuel (ATF) costs are rising, leading to higher fares and poorer load
factor on most sectors, JetLite has brought some cheer to Dr Babasaheb
Ambedkar International Airport. The private air carrier has plans to
start operations on the Dubai route
from Nagpur from October.
Jet Airways, which operates JetLite, and offers domestic flights on Mumbai and Delhi route is planning to launch the daily operations to Dubai from Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport during winter schedule this year.
Recently, Jet Airways had discontinued its evening flight to Mumbai while JetLite discontinued flights to Delhi. At that time Jet had said it would introduce flights on the Nagpur-Pune sector six days in a week, except Saturdays, from August 1. The Dubai flights would start from October as the airline is busy planning timings and slots at airports.
Dubai flight: Jet applies to AAI for slots
Nagpur: “We plan to launch a Dubai flight from Nagpur as well as Hyderabad most likely from October. The fares will be competitive,’’ said a Jet Airways official, adding the airline had already applied to the Airport Authority of India for time slots.
The low-cost carrier will operate modern, 62-seater French-made turboprop ATR 72-500 aircraft on the Dubai route. These would have a total weekly seat entitlement of 1,050 seats on each sector.
“It’s a very lucrative route, but operations on it would depend on the scenario at that time. We are optimistic of beginning operations as the route is economically viable,” the official told TOI.
Air India Express has been operating on the Mumbai-Nagpur-Dubai sector since September 25 last year. The flight operates thrice a week-Wednesday, Friday and Sunday from Nagpur.
Jet’s Dubai flight will be the fourth connecting international destination to Nagpur, after Sharjah (Air Arabia), Doha (Qatar Airways) and Dubai (Air India Express). Air India recently discontinued its operations on Bangkok route following surging ATF costs.
