NEW DELHI: Airlines have staked claim for distressed Jet Airways (India) Ltd’s foreign flying rights, which will be alloted in an open and transparent manner, civil aviation secretary P.S. Kharola said on Friday.
The government is allocating Jet’s flying rights on a temporary basis till the company resumes operations.
With no funds to meet expenses, Jet Airways had suspended operations a month ago and there is no sign of a credible revival scheme in sight for the airline. With the airline losing leased planes for defaulting on dues, airport slots have been reassigned to other carriers and employees have quit.
