The airline's order for 737 MAX 10 and MAX 8-200 does not include the MAX 9 version, which has been largely grounded over the Alaska Airlines cabin panel blowout incident.
The rare verbal and written confrontations between the airlines' chief executives were detailed in the letter, sent by Campbell Wilson of Air India, to Vinay Dube of low-cost airline Akasa.
Akasa will add three planes to its fleet within the next three months to reach 20, making it eligible to fly to international destinations, says airline’s co-founder.
With this, late Rakesh Jhunjhunwala-backed airline will become the second commercial Indian carrier after Air India to permit pets weighing 7 kg in the cabin.
Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, who made more money on the stock market than almost anyone else, was sure 2 decades ago that India & its stock market were going to boom.
The carrier said it has opened ticket sales on 28 weekly flights on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad route from 7 August & 28 weekly flights on the Bengaluru-Kochi route from 13 August.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
