Fly Kingfisher Red, get free meals too

New Delhi: There is no recession for Kingfisher Red airline. The low-cost Kingfisher Red is now serving hot meals and juices to its passengers at no extra cost while full-service airlines like Jet Airways and Air India are cutting corners to stay afloat.
Kingfisher Red, the brand operated by Kingfisher Airlines, has recently started serving food & beverages (F&B) on various routes such as Mumbai-Goa sector, Delhi-Ahmedabad sector and Nagpur-Mumbai sector. Other budget carriers such as IndiGo and SpiceJet do not serve on-board meals despite having same fares on these sectors. They ask for extra bucks for providing on-board F&B services.
While offering F&B services to customers, Kingfisher Red is maintaining a clear distinction from its big brother Kingfisher Class, the full-service airline which claims to offer a luxurious experience.
“Kingfisher Red is a unique concept whereby we offer a compelling value proposition to those flyers who seek value when flying with us. So while the Kingfisher Red experience does not include all the frills normally offered by a full-service carrier, we offer more than what a typical low-fare airline would,” a Kingfisher Airlines spokesperson said.
“Besides breakfast, we also offer meals during lunch and dinner. For short-haul flights, where the flying time is very short, we offer a beverage and quick-snack like a cake,” he added.
