AirAsia 在印度將有新航線

改變是痛苦不改變是受苦
Bangalore: Budget carrier AirAsia plans to induct 10 more aircraft next year that would take the strength of its fleet to 15.

"I think realistically we may do ten aircraft by next year. January and February, probably we won't have many. Ten more aircraft next year, taking the total tally to 15 aircraft," AirAsia CEO Mittu Chandilya said.

He was speaking on the sidelines of unveiling of Bangalore Raptors official team jersey ceremony in the presence of ace Indian tennis legend Vijay Amritraj who is conducting the Champions Tennis League (CTL).

Chandilya, also the owner of the Bangalore franchise of CTL, said the airliner planned to put in place one aircraft- a-year plan.

"It depends upon when the aircraft are ready because our schedules are very tight and by next year we really want to have one-aircraft-a-year plan."

He, however, said there would be no change and variations in the type of aircraft the airliner plans to induct.

"There will be no change and no variation in the type of aircraft to be inducted. We will induct A-320s which will be a mix of ceos (current engine option) and neos (new engine option)," he added.

The airliner will be getting neos in 2016 as per delivery, Chandilya said.

He said he would be announcing two new routes next week, but refrained from divulging the information in detail.

"I will be announcing two new routes next week. I think it will be exciting," he said.

Chandilya said growth was key factor for the airliner and its targets will be based on scales.

"Growth is something very key to us. Our entire targets will be based on scales and I think we are slowly reaching to where we need to go."

Asked whether the new route falls in the eastern parts of India, Chandilya said, "Of course it will be in India. I rather keep it surprise because you guys will see. It shouldn't be too much of a surprise, but I think it will be exciting routes," he said.

古城白衣少年殤
AIRASIA 當初有傳言是抗議印度幾家機場(德里 孟買)突然數倍的調漲機場費, 而決定停掉部分航線, 很難想像飛印度而不停第一第二大城, 這問題遲早要解決的,看來就是明年囉
不壞沒人愛
應該是印度國內線而不是國際線:-(

AirAsia India CEO Mittu Chandilya said all AirAsia India's services with the exception of Bangalore-Chennai, are generating cash. He explained: "The Bangalore-Chennai flight is not making money because we are pricing it less due to competition from other modes of transport that are available in abundance between the two cities."

The carrier will soon commence operating from large cities such as Delhi and Mumbai, marking a change from its earlier strategy of connecting smaller cities. Mr Chandilya explained: "We had earlier decided to operate between smaller cities and develop markets but the competition is following us everywhere. Now, we have decided to take on competition in their big markets like Delhi and Mumbai by announcing our flights soon".
This change in strategy has, however, slowed the capacity growth plan of the airline, which will now operate a fleet of five aircraft until end-Dec 2014. It initially had a target to have 10 aircraft by the end of 2014, which was later reduced to six. Mr Chandilay confirmed: "Now, the sixth aircraft comes only in January". (Economic Times)
