After Singapore Airlines and TATA joint venture Vistara announced last week that its delayed launch would take place in early 2015, two new entrants have revealed they are set to try their luck in India’s turbulent aviation market.
Start-ups Premier Airways and Air One both announced on Wednesday (November 26) that they would be taking to the skies from the middle of next year.
Their imminent arrival is a result of India’s civil aviation minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju’s radical step of granting approval for six new airlines to fly.
Premier and Air One will join Vistara as part of the influx into an industry which has seen only modest expansions from the likes of Air India and Jet Airways in recent years, while foreign competitors, including Emirates and Air Asia, have made aggressive inroads into the market, increasing routes and capacity.
