The leading private airline would also be looking at further improving its aircraft utilisation as well as leveraging commercial and operational synergies with UAE's national carrier Etihad, according to senior officials.
Hear out Cramer Ball, CEO and Amit Agarwal, CFO of Jet Airways detailing Q3 numbers.
Ball has quit the airline to pursue a new opportunity, in Europe for family reasons, Jet Airways said in a statement while announcing that his resignation will be effective from February 29 next.
Its total income rose 11 percent at Rs 5220 crore in Q1 versus Rs 4685.6 crore in year-ago period. Other income also rose 189 percent at Rs 159.3 crore versus Rs 55 crore year-on-year.
Currently, the Naresh Goyal-promoted airline offers code-share flights from Abu Dhabi to New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD) and Washington DC, with Etihad. Code-sharing allows an airline to book its passengers on its partner carriers and provide seamless transport to multiple destinations where it has no presence.
The airline is also on course with its plan for becoming profitable by 2018, Jet Airways Chief Executive Officer Cramer Ball said.
