TOULOUSE: Indian airlines should become positively competitive to make the country’s aviation market sustainable in the long term, a top Airbus executive has said while responding to the recent grounding of Jet AirwaysNSE -0.91 %.
“India market is a very competitive one and I think the business model is a difficult one,” said Guillaume Faury, chief executive officer, Airbus. “Only recommendation is to always look at your competitors who manage their business better than the others. It is a competition and not everybody can be a winner, but things can change,” he told reporters, replying to a question seeking advice for Indian carriers in the light of Jet’s troubles.
