Mumbai: AirAsia seems to have sensed an opportunity in the underserved
northeast region, which has only two direct flights to Mumbai and
Bangalore. At a company event on Friday, Chief Executive Tony Fernandes
said the airline would focus on the Northeast destinations but did not
specify routes.
AirAsia has launched services on the Bangalore-Chennai and Bangalore-Goa routes.
According to schedule filed with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), there are only two direct flights linking Guwahati with Mumbai and Bangalore. Both are operated by IndiGo, India's largest domestic airline. Most of the other flights to West and South India from this region have one or more stops.
Guwahati also has direct flights to Delhi and one or two stop flights to Ahmedabad, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai and Jaipur. None of the other northeastern airports has direct connectivity with Delhi, Mumbai or airports in South India.
