Mumbai: Naresh Goyal-promoted Jet Airways today said it is planning to buy more single-aisle aircraft from Boeing, amid the airline seeking to operate code-share flights with Etihad Airways connecting as many as 23 domestic destinations with Abu Dhabi by 2016.
"We are contemplating placing another round of Boeing 737 orders," Jet Airways senior vice-president for commercial finance and investor relations K G Vishwanath said at a post-earnings concall with analysts.
Though the airline did not specify reasons for this shift in strategy, it may be noted that single-aisle planes are more economical and are good for feeder/short-haul services.
