SpiceJet hopes to induct more Boeing 737 Max aircraft over the next few months even as it wants to start broadband internet service on its planes soon, according to Ajay Singh, Chairman and Managing Director (CMD).
The airline has a fleet of 91 aircraft, of which 13 are Max planes and 46 are older versions of Boeing 737 aircraft, according to its website. “The Boeing 737 Max – the flagship of our fleet – has successfully returned to service and earned rave reviews from passengers. Over the next few months we will induct many more Max aircraft in our fleet with the goal to replace all our older aircraft with the Max,” Singh was quoted saying.
SpiceJet’s route network will also expand to include unique and exciting new destinations in India and around the world
The airline’s cargo company too, will add a few freighter aircraft further strengthening and consolidating its leadership position in the industry, Singh said. “We will continue to add new products and new routes to our network this year. SpiceClub, our wonderful loyalty launched our co-branded credit card recently and we hope to start a broadband internet service onboard our aircraft soon,” he said.
SpiceJet’s route network will also expand to include unique and exciting new destinations in India and around the world, its CMD noted. He said, “SpiceJet has been specially recognised for the stellar role you have all played in serving your country through the Covid crisis,” Singh wrote in an email on the carrier’s 17th anniversary. “We transported more than 1,00,000 oxygen concentrators to India when they were the most required. We were the first and the largest transporters of Covid vaccines in the country,” Singh said.
