Indian skies will see a new airline this winter as regional airline Fly91 has got approval from the government.
The airline aims to start flights in the October-December quarter. It is promoted by Harsha Raghavan, the former head of Fairfax India and Manoj Chacko, executive vice president of defunct Kingfisher Airlines. The airline will have the new Goa airport built by GMR as its main base.
“We have got No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Ministry of Civil Aviation. Now we will start the process to get an Air Operator’s Permit (AOP) from the DGCA. It’s an exhaustive process and we are planning to start service from winter this year,” Chacko, an aviation industry veteran, told ET.
