low frills carrier SpiceJet on Friday said it is planning to add about three Bombardiers and 4 to 5 Boeings by the end of the current fiscal as it wants to increase its daily flights by 10 per cent and also introduce new international destinations.
“We have 17 planes for regional connectivity. Spicejet is a major player in regional connectivity space. Few weeks back, we have added three Bombardiers. We will be adding three more in the current financial year,” Ajay Singh CMD of SpiceJet told reporters on the sidelines of a Ficci ladies Organisation programme here on Friday.
“We will be adding 4 or 5 aircraft this year. They will mostly be Boeings,” he said. Currently, SpiceJet is having a fleet of 43 aircraft operating 320 flights a day. Replying to a query, Singh said within next few weeks they will be adding 2 to 3 international destinations. Currently, it operates to six countries.
