Airlines Logistics - Policy
Mr Naresh Goyal Our Bureau Kozhikode, Jan. 19 The Government could soon allow private sector airlines to operate to Abu Dhabi and Dubai and could also possibly look at permitting them to fly to Saudi Arabia. Addressing a press conference the Mr Naresh Goyal, Chairman, Jet Airways, said that bilateral talks on air services between India and these Gulf States were expected to be held soon and this could pave the way for private sector airlines to operate to these Gulf States. Mr Goyal was here to announce the Muscat and Doha flights to Kozhikode. “We will hopefully get permission to fly to Abu Dhabi and Dubai after the Government-level talks are completed. We are also hopeful that the current clause of only one airline from both Saudi Arabia and India being allowed to fly the route will be dropped and others will also be allowed on the route,” Mr Goyal said. At the moment, Jet Airways has only been given permission to operate 70 weekly flights to Kuwait, Doha and Bahrain. The airline also applied for permission to operate flights to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, which were not granted by the Government. The airline, meanwhile, hopes to start operating on the Mumbai-Shanghai-San Francisco route as early as the end of next month.
