Mumbai: As per a business restructuring plan, Jet Airways starting Tuesday commenced the roll out of a full service product on all flights across its domestic network. This marks an end to no-frill services offered by Jet Konnect and JetLite. JetLite as a separate legal entity will continue to operate but will offer only full service flights.
In the full service space now Jet Airways will compete with national carrier Air India and the soon to be launched airline Vistara, a joint venture between Tata Group and Singapore Airlines. Currently, the market is dominated by no frill airlines such as IndiGo, SpiceJet, Go Air and AirAsia India which carry bulk of the passengers.
Henceforth, Jet Airways will offer a two class, full service product to its passengers with a complimentary meal or snacks onboard all domestic flights.
This move has been influenced by Etihad Airways which last year picked up 24 per cent stake in the Naresh Goyal controlled airline. Currently, Etihad is integrating its operations with Jet Airways' to have an edge over its Gulf based rival carriers.
