The Tatas have come up with another airlines venture, the Vistara Airlines. Recently, it came up with AirAsia India, which was a low cost carrier with operations focussed in Southern India. This time a premium segment airline, focussed in the northern India with Delhi Airport hub has been planned.
The aviation sector in India is not a reliable arena, considering that only 1 airline in profitable. In India, services are not respected a lot, and considering a premium airline to be launched is a kind of weird decision, because, all flights in India have a maximum duration of 2 hours, which is quite less.
Vistara Airlines ha 20 A320`s on order which will be delivered within 5 years, after which it`ll be eligible to begin overseas operations. Initially, this airlines will plan to connect Delhi with all the major tier 1 and tier 2 cities.
It would be interesting to see how this airlines fares considering that in the past the Tatas have had multiple failed bids to acquire Air India.
