UAE carrier Etihad Airways, which owns 24 per cent in Jet Airways, says over the next year it will add more flights, beginning with a third daily service from New Delhi to Abu Dhabi from May 1.
This additional flight from the national capital will take its weekly services to 140, making it the largest Gulf carrier in the country connecting 11 cities with Kolkata being the latest destination from early this month.
These increases mean from May, Etihad and Jet will together offer 224 weekly return flights connecting 15 Indian cities, making it the largest Gulf carrier, Etihad said in a statement quoting its president and chief executive James Hogan.
Etihad and Jet jointly operate 5 daily flights from Mumbai, 3 from New Delhi (beginning May), three from Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Kochi; two from Ahmedabad and Kozhikode and one from Jaipur, Kolkata and Thiruvananthapuram.
On expansion, Hogan said, "over the next 12 months, we will add more frequencies to our India network and deploy new wide-body planes, including Boeing 787s."
