New Delhi: The revenue of Air India (AI) may increase by 4-5 per cent by
joining the Star Alliance. This was stated by the Minister for Civil
Aviation, Shri Ashok Gajapathi Raju Pusapati while announcing the
inclusion of Air India into the Star Alliance club today in the presence
of Secretary, Civil Aviation, Shri Ashok Lavasa, CMD, Air India, Shri
Rohit Nandan and COO, Star Alliance, Mr. Jeffrey Goh. The Minister said
that Air India will get benefit out of this association as a wider reach
and access to existing facilities for the members of the world’s
biggest grouping of airlines would now be available to the passengers of
Air India also. Air India’s entry into the Star Alliance reflects the
buoyancy in the aviation sector resulting from some of the recent
initiatives taken by the Government. Star Alliance is the biggest
congregation of 26 leading airlines offering worldwide reach and
smoother travel experience. The Star Alliance network offers 21,900
daily flights to 1328 airports in 195 countries. Today about 13 Star
Member Airlines operate to 10 destinations in India and account for a
total share of 13 per cent of India’s to and fro market.
The inclusion of Air India in Star would take Star Alliance to a stronger position with a share of about 30 per cent. As a Star Alliance member, Air India will now offer its passengers seamless travel experience across the Alliance network around the world, besides a premium customer recognition and benefits across member airlines.
