Jet Airways to have one more flight to London

India's largest private domestic carrier Jet Airways Monday announced it would add another direct flight to London from next month. "Jet will start two no-stop flights a week from Ahmedabad from April 3," it said in a statement. "Jet will fly two non-stop flights per week to London from Ahmedabad from April initially and then fly three flights a week from May. An Airbus A330-200 aircraft will be operated on this route," it said. The airline already flies three direct flights from Mumbai, New Delhi and Amritsar to the British capital. The move is seen as part of Jet's strategy to tap the international and trans-continental routes in the face of increasing competition in the domestic sector from more and more low-cost carriers. "This is part of the Jet Airways expansion plans on in the international sector. Jet already operates flights to South Asia, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia and plans to added new routes in North America, Europe, Africa and other Asian cities in the near future," the statement said.
