Fly91: Its Operation Date, Type of Aircraft, Connectivity to Cities
India is home to several domestic and international airlines. Fly91, an additional airline firm, will be joining this lengthy list! This airline will be started by travel industry veteran Manoj Chacko. The airline has reportedly received a “no-objection certificate” from the Aviation Ministry and is prepared to take off! This is all the information you require about Fly91.
Fly91, founded by Manoj Chacko and Convergent Finance LLP, is a regional airline based in Panaji.
With plans to have six planes by the end of this year and 40 planes in the next five years, Fly91 aims to connect Goa with cities like Kolhapur, Sholapur, Hubli, Nasik, and Mysore.
The low-cost structure will offer good value products and digitalization, with passengers able to buy meals and beverages on board.
The DGCA is approving the ATR 72, a twin-engine turboprop short-haul regional airliner, for operations. The DGCA license, along with security clearance for directors, is required after receiving the ministry NOC.
The process typically takes three to four months. If approved, India will have a new airline during the next holiday season, ensuring a smooth transition to the country’s aviation industry.
