The country’s new scheduled airline Akasa Air is “well capitalised” and will allow carrying of domesticated dogs and cats onboard along with passengers from November, according to its senior executives.
The airline, which began operations on August 7, also plans to launch international operations in the second half of next year.
Akasa Air CEO Vinay Dube said the airline is well capitalised and is not looking to have new investors.
Dube said the airline’s performance in the 60 days since starting operations has been “satisfying”.
“We are very happy, satisfied with… Our performance,” he said.
Currently, it has a fleet of six planes and the number is expected to touch 18 by March next year.
