NEW DELHI: Financially-troubled Jet Airways on Tuesday assured the government that it will not ground any more aircraft and strive to increase the seat-capacity in coming weeks.
“They (Jet Airways) have assured us that no more jets will be grounded. Today, 35 planes are flying,” said Pradeep Singh Kharola, Secretary in the Ministry of Civil Aviation.
“They will approach the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for the next one month to get the schedule approved for the 35 planes,” he told reporters after the meeting with Jet officials, State Bank of India Chairman Rajnish Kumar and DGCA chief B.S. Bhullar.
