Hyderabad: The Indian aviation market is set to get a fresh player with a new regional carrier, Air Costa, stating on Monday that it is in the process of getting final approvals from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and would launch operations from July.
Promoted by Vijayawada-based construction group LEPL, Air Costa will be focusing on operations in southern India with a fleet of 3 Embraer E-Jets, which are most suitable for the regional short-haul connectivity between tier-II and III cities with the major metros. The carrier plans to operate flights to six destinations in the first phase.
