Malaysia Airlines and EasyJet among bidders for Go First

Besides Naveen Jindal’s Jindal Power Ltd, the beleaguered airline Go First has drawn interest from players such as Malaysia Airlines, Europe’s EasyJet and US-based Spirit Airlines, informed a source close to the action, who did not wish to be identified. Guwahati-based regional airline Jettwings Airways has also submitted its EoI for Go First Airlines, the airline said in a statement on Thursday. Go First’s Resolution Professional Shailendra Ajmera, however, did not respond to DH’s mail seeking confirmation on the names in the fray. Earlier, Planit Travglobal, the sole general sales agent (GSA)/distributor of Dubai-based carrier Flydubai in India since 2011, was the frontrunner in the bidding process with a deal size of Rs 27,000 crore.
