Jet, Air Deccan, JetLite likely to fly Dubai soon

New Delhi: The proposal of Jet Airways, JetLite and Air Deccan to operate flights to Dubai is likely to get the official nod soon.
Official sources told Business Line that with an increase in the number of seats on offer between India and Dubai, the requests of all the airlines for rights to operate are likely to be cleared.
Bilateral rights between the two countries were recently exchanged in sufficient numbers, paving the way for all the private airlines seeking to operate on this route.
Currently, only Air India operates between India and Dubai.
The airlines are likely to be permitted to fly to Dubai as per the schedules they had filed.
Hence, some flights will start almost immediately while others will follow during the winter schedule this October, followed by increase in frequency during the summer schedule in March next year.
