Aviation market big enough for Akasa Air to succeed: CEO

Monday, 01 July 2024 | PTI | New Delhi

As Akasa Air spreads its wings on domestic and international routes, the less-than-two-year-old airline's chief Vinay Dube has said he does not think about competition in encouraging or discouraging terms, as the aviation market is "big enough for us to succeed".

The carrier, which took to the skies in August 2022, currently has a fleet of 24 Boeing 737 MAX planes and operates more than 900 flights weekly.

While emphasising that the focus is on service excellence and cost leadership, Dube said the airline is looking for network and international expansion.

"I don't think about competition and certainly don't think about it in encouraging or discouraging terms. If we focus on ourselves, the market is big enough for us to succeed," he told PTI in a recent interview.
