SpiceJet looks at exotic foreign destinations

New Delhi: Young Indian low-cost carriers (LCC) are eager to spread their wings to territories left unchartered by their older full service counterparts. The country's second biggest LCC SpiceJet has sought government nod to fly to 10 new destinations, majority of which are in the former Soviet Union and China. These include places like former Kazakh capital Almaty, Uzbek capital Tashkent and Chinese special administered region (SAR) Macau.
The airline will launch flights to other Chinese SAR Hong Kong next month along with Guangzhou, according to airline CEO Neil Mills. It already flies to Kabul, along with tourism-cum-trade centres of Colombo, Dubai and Kathmandu. The airline will bring Male, Riyadh and Dhaka on its network soon.
