The law will be scrapped! http://www.business-standard.com/art...1500037_1.html
Good - a major change. I also do not understand how this will prevent transiting in DXB, but luckily, this law is going away. |

I agree on your second point.. hopefully Tata SQ can change that. As per IT is concerned, they had their own operational inefficiencies. Whether or not people are willing to pay more, we will see ;);)

Vistara: Tata-SIA joint venture to start operations in October
This fall, Tata and Singapore Airline's JV - Vistara - is expected to launch.
The new full-service airline will be New Delhi-based and will be leasing SQ's A320 aircraft. Vistara plans to operate 87 weekly flights. "The airline is likely to have 14 flights a week connecting Delhi to Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad and Hyderabad. Apart from covering the big cities, there are going to be seven flights a week to Srinagar, Patna and Chandigarh." http://qz.com/247470/singapore-airli...#/h/94377,2,3/ |
No *A membership I guess, though there'd possibly be a SQ codeshare.
|
can't wait for this to start....ai gets 90% of my business as i'm forced to give about 10% to jet....but now i'll be happy to get rid of jet altogether....

Slightly off-topic, but is there a current situation where there are 2 airlines from the same country within the same Alliance (like UA and US used to co-exist)?
|
SQ already set up Silkair and Scoot without any *A affiliation. I doubt this will be any different.

Really eager to know if the 20-5 rule will be relaxed now. I am really looking forward to flying international with them.

There is: China, used to have Shanghai Airlines (now integrated into MU) and Air China in Star Alliance, and still has China Airlines (TPE), China Eastern (PVG, SHA, NKG etc.), China Southern (CAN etc.) and Xiamen Airlines (XMN, HGH..) all in Skyteam.

China at the moment has both CA and ZH as *A members. |

Welcome news. We get to fly a class and well managed airline in India. Been a while since I flew one......
The name Vistara conjures up images of a land based resort too ! :) |
Looking forward to this. Shame they are primarily focused on DEL. Will have to try them out. Any ideas if they will be launching an FF program.
No way SQ and Tata can mess this one up. Just too much pride to be lost! |
