Air India plans to hire more than 1,000 pilots, including captains and trainers, even as its existing pilots have voiced their concerns about their new salary structure. The Tata airline has 1,800 pilots on its rolls.
The airline said it has entered into an agreement with US-based Sabre Corporation, which would enable travel agents and corporations around the world to access seat availability and fares through Sabre’s travel marketplace.
Air India has placed orders for 470 aircraft with Boeing and Airbus, including for wide-body planes.
