Regional connections to soar on the wings of new airways

Regional connectivity is set to get a push with two more regional carriers Turbo Megha Airways and Premier Airways planning to take wings.

While Turbo is expected to launch its inaugural flights next month, Premier is gearing up to begin operations by the end of this financial year.

“We are planning to start operations before July 15. We are waiting for flying clearance from DGCA (directorate general of civil aviation),” said managing director of Turbo Megha V Umesh.

The airline will start operations with three ATR regional aircraft and connect cities like Vijaywada, Tirupati, Bangalore, Aurangabad, Hubli and Hyderabad in the southern region of the country.

Airline industry sources said Premier Airways had also formed its core management and operations team to start operations by the end of 2015-16. In last April, Decor Aviation has also begun regional air services under the brand name Air Pegasus.
