GoaAir may start flights to Bhutan from New Delhi

 

MUMBAI, July 18:Wadia group-promoted budget
carrier GoAir is likely to commence flight services to Bhutan
from New Delhi, a source said Thursday.

GoAir, which started flying international from October
last year, currently operates to Phuket, Male, Abu Dhabi and
Muscat.

Last week, it announced expansion of its international
operations to three new markets, Bangkok, Dubai and Kuwait,
besides launch of services on four new routes.

“GoAir is all set to start flight services to Paro
(Bhutan) from New Delhi. An announcement to this effect is
expected to be made very soon,” a source privy to the
development told PTI.

GoAir’s response to a query on this issue was awaited.

Following the launch of the services, GoAir will

become the first domestic private carrier to fly to Bhutan.

The city-based airline, which launched its domestic
operations in November 2005, was granted flying rights in
August 2016 to operate to nine countries, including China,
Vietnam, Maldives, Kazakhstan, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, among
others. (PTI)
