19 flights cancelled as Jet defaults on rent

Debt-ridden Jet Airways on Tuesday grounded three of its Boeing 737 planes due to nonpayment of lease rentals. This led cancellation of 19 domestic flights across several cities, said sources. “The total number of grounded planes due to non-payment of lease rentals has come to six in the last two days. Though the airline has been trying to work out a deal with Etihad, this was the first time that the true impact of its problems was felt on the ground at different airports,” said an official.
Jet’s spokesperson refused to comment.
Sources said late in the night that due to grounding of four more aircraft, 15 more flights on Mumbai-Raipur, Mumbai-Chennai, Delhi-Raipur, Delhi-Imphal, Delhi-Silchar, Delhi-Guwahati, Delhi-Ahmedabad, MumbaiAhmedabad, scheduled for Wednesday have been cancelled.
