आखिर @flyspicejet की प्रॉब्लम क्या है?
सितंबर के DGCA आंकड़े:
कैंसिलेशन: 20.29%, यानी हर 5 में से 1 उड़ान रद्द
OTP: सिर्फ 16.6%, यानी हर 6 में से सिर्फ 1 उड़ान ही समय पर उड़ी
2 घंटे से ज्यादा लेट: 39.36% उड़ानें
Expansion and fund infusion- #AkasaAir charts growth and stays on course despite headwinds, inducts its 45th aircraft.
This is the 14th aircraft induction in the current year for the airline.
This comes close to a fundraise report , Rs 450 cr via a share sale to existing investors (Reports @aneeshp ).
“Akasa Air has raised ₹450 crore by selling shares to existing investors to meet operating expenses and fund its expansion plans. The fundraise, the second since last August, comes amid slow traffic growth and a tough operating environment that has seen crude oil prices increase to over $100 a barrel,” a report in @Business_Line_ .

Baat toh sahi hai….
“SpiceJet sasta hai isiliye ho aap…”
The comment of ground support staff at Delhi Airport sparked a row …Passengers took offence, some were even heard saying - “inko kayee mahino se tankha nahi milee hai…”
Both the sides are actually bang on and the situation described aptly !!
Just wonder how SpiceJet, a scheduled operator, allowed to operate with massive consistent disruption and cancellations … Also, with airfares soaring, passengers do book cheap flights and SpiceJet becomes a default option…
Shouldn’t the regulator step in and at least put out an alert for passengers booking with SpiceJet of high possibility of cancellations/ delays / rescheduling?

An Indian national was killed during an attack carried out by the Houthis targeting Dammam airport. The attack killed two people and left eight people injured. At least 21 people have been killed in Houthi attacks on Saudi airports since the beginning of October.
Saudi authorities have informed that one Indian national was among two people who unfortunately lost their lives in the attack on Dammam airport yesterday night and two Indian nationals were injured. We are ascertaining further details and contacting the affected families. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of the deceased and we wish speedy recovery of the injured.
