New Delhi: The state-owned Indian Airlines is now planning to add more power to the planned image makeover of its feeder subsidiary Alliance Air.
The airline, sources said, is considering adding 70-seater regional jets to Alliance Air's fleet as part of a plan to turn it into a low-cost, low-frills airline.
The proposal was taken up at a recent meeting between airline officials and civil aviation minister Praful Patel.
Though a final decision on the internal configuration for these regional jets is yet to be decided, sources said these aircraft would most likely be ordered in a single-class configuration in keeping with airline's low-cost avatar.
