New Delhi: Tata-SIA joint venture airline Vistara, which is all set to take wings from Friday with flights connecting Delhi, Mumbai and Ahmedabad, is expected to take delivery of its third Airbus A-320 aircraft this week.
Interestingly, the full service carrier's launch coincides with the concluding day of the the Pravasi Bharatiya Divas celebrations scheduled to be held in Gujarat's capital city Gandhinagar, near Ahmedabad, from January 7 to January 9.
It will be followed by the seventh edition of the Vibrant Gujarat Global Investors Summit, taking place in Gandhinagar only from January 11 to January 13.
The airline currently has two leased A-320s and is slated to induct the third of the five aircraft planned for this fiscal. Its original plan was to take the deliveries in October last year but had to defer it due to the delay in securing its flying licence or the Air Operator Permit (AOP).
