GoAir plans to add Vietnam, Cambodia to destination list
Budget passenger carrier GoAir plans to add destinations such as Hanoi and Phnom Penh to its international network by the year-end, sources said.
Sources said the airline, which is rapidly expanding its international presence, will also deploy capacity to Bhutan in the coming days. Till recently, the airline flew to just four international destinations—Phuket, Male, Muscat, and Abu Dhabi.
Lately, it launched a slew of new international flights—Delhi-Abu Dhabi, Mumbai-Abu Dhabi, Mumbai-Muscat, Delhi-Bangkok and Kannur-Kuwait. However, some of these new international flights are being operated on re-allocated slots of Jet Airways. GoAir has the rights over these till September.
An airport slot is a specified time period granted at airports to an airline to operate its scheduled flights.
Consequent to its expansion plans, the airline has enhanced its fleet size and recently took the delivery of its 51st plane. Going forward, it will be adding at least one aircraft every month.
Some of GoAir’s rivals have already tied up with the likes of Turkish Airlines and Emirates.
