After multiple delays in flight operation resumptions, bankrupt carrier Go First now finds itself in a place where it simply doesn’t have the staff strength to do so, even if it gets the promised funding.
Multiple sources told DH that more than 500 of the 600 Go First pilots have either joined other airlines or are in the process of leaving and the airline is left with less than 20 per cent of cabin crew and maintenance staff amid confusion and no communication from the company.
As things stand, the airline would be unable to operate more than 8-9 aircraft, though in July it had received conditional nod on its resumption plan to operate 114 daily flights with 15 aircraft.
