NEW DELHI: Domestic carriers will see planned induction of 20-25 aircraft between now and end April to bridge the shortage of flights on the back of groundings by airlines due to several reasons.
“The aircraft will join either because airlines have ordered aircraft which will be delivered or some will lease them. Besides, the airlines will also try and utilise their aircraft more so that passengers are not inconvenienced,” said Pradeep Singh Kharola, secretary, civil aviation after a meeting with major domestic airlines which had been called to discuss increasing capacity in the domestic market.
