Veteran industrialist Ratan Tata extended a warm welcome to passengers onboard Air India flights, the airline said on Wednesday, his greeting coming after the takeover of the airline by the Tata group.
“The Tata group welcomes Air India’s new customers and is excited to work together to make Air India the airline of choice in terms of passenger comfort and service,” Ratan Tata said in a recorded message which the airline posted on its Twitter page today.
N Chandrasekaran, Chairman of Tata Sons, which in October last year beat a consortium led by rival SpiceJet promoter to win the bid for the national carrier, first called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi before heading to the Air India office where the takeover formalities were completed on January 27.
