Jet Airways’ overseas rights to be allotted to other carriers
Jet Airways is now close to losing its international flying rights as the ministry of civil aviation is set to allot its overseas routes to other carriers.
According to a senior government official, all major scheduled airlines, except AirAsia India, have requested the ministry to allot the international routes among them so that the capacity lying idle since April 17 can be utilised.
AirAsia, a joint venture between Tata Sons and Malaysia-based AirAsia Berhad, is yet to receive a nod to fly overseas, therefore, it is not part of this airline grouping.
