As a full-service carrier, Vistara plans to start flight operations first to Europe and then to the US and Australia and the share of domestic and international operations is likely to reach 50:50 in five years, the airline’s CEO Leslie Thng said on Wednesday.
Speaking to reporters soon after the landing of Vistara’s first international flight in Singapore, Thng said the 50:50 share in 5 years will depend on the number of aircraft Vistara brings in that time period.
“We are ending the financial year soon in March 2020. The contribution of international as a percentage of ASK (available seat kilometers) will still be low because we are just starting (international operations),” he said.
