I think 9W is much better served partnering with AF and DL in a JV. 9W needs premium clients and the US origin premium traffic is not flocking to the ME3. Also any hope that 9W has of flying nonstop us-india is with a us partner |
Contrary to what you would love to believe, flying to the US non stop or otherwise is not in the best interest of most Asian carriers. As we have seen in the case of MH and TG. If 9W is getting better returns by flying to regional destinations in the gulf and SE Asia, they are better off sending flights there than attempt ULH routes and bleed.
From a hub perspective 9W can connect more cities frm India to AUH than frm India to AMS/BRU. |

|
|
Hello Guys,
Just been observing for the last few weeks Jet has not released any seats in J (Premiere) on domestic flight for milage upgrade or a full redemption booking. Where as Economy is widely available on plenty of flights but no seats at all in the J cabin
Esp: Bom-Del, Bom-Blr or v.v.
I cannot see any seats for last minute redemption bookings or much forward in the future.
Has anyone else faced a similar issue?
Thank You.

Wow or they should just stop flyimg. The point of my post is that 9W is hurting itself because it does not have a robust partner that can bring them premium flyers. You cannot compare MH, TG, or even SQ to India in terrms of US traffic. India's business and VFR links are much much stronger than most countries in the region. Indian aviation needs to be fixed. Aviation feeds economic growth. If 9W stops all flights to the US, its proof positive that the ME3 have killed indian aviation. But hey at least AUH gave Modi a temple...
Btw unless Vistara is secretly funded by ME money, here's hoping they go aggressive on india us routes. |

India's Jet Airways to axe Brussels scissors hub in 1Q2016
Jet Airways will close its Brussels National scissors hub in late March of next year citing its unprofitability Belgium's Standaard newspaper has said. The report says the airline has already informed its thirty-three Brussels based staff (twenty-five Belgians and eight Indians) of the decision.

They cannot use AUH to fly to US/Canada. The only route possible from the existing routes they are flying is to EWR. Jet has no rights on AUH-Toronto and will not get it either. So they have to scrap the entire scissors hub system and not fly to US or fly nonstop to US from BOM only, since BOM is their main hub.
The best alternative is to fly via AMS, and hope for at least a code share with DL, AF, KL on the routes going to EWR and YYZ. |

They can fly to YYZ via AUH, just that they wont have passenger rights between AUH and YYZ [any any other connecting traffic barring Indian cities and that too on 9W operated flights only]
Given in the recent bilateral with ICN , YVR got added as a 5th freedom point AI or 9W should explore that option as well
a DEL-ICN-YVR should do pretty decent

In all seriousness, I should be able to get some inside info as my wonderful sister-in-law begins her career as a JetChild next month.
She has already handed her passport in for a long term UAE residence visa! |

Jet Airways ATR planes cleared for low visibility operations
December 3, 2015
Jet Airways ATR planes have been authorised to land in visibility of 300 metres.
The airline said it has secured Directorate General of Civil Aviation approval for the same and this will enable it to improve the fleet utilisation and minimise inconvenience to passengers due to fog during winter.
Jet Airways said it has received approvals for CAT II low visibility operations for its ATR fleet.
Captain. Nikhil B. Ved, Sr. Vice-President, Flight Operations, Jet Airways, said, "The CAT II authorisation for our ATR fleet is an important milestone for Jet Airways. It will enable Jet Airways to significantly enhance flight operations on ATR routes, especially during winter, and also help us improve on-time performance."
Jet Airways currently operates ATR flights to 35 destinations across India, connecting metro cities to Tier II destinations such as Aizawl, Bhopal, Dehradun, Diu, Gorakhpur, Indore, Imphal, Madurai and Silchar.

Jet Airways: 650,000 fewer passengers at Brussels Airport
15 December 2015
The Indian airline Jet Airways has decided to leave Brussels Airport, which will therefore lose 650,000 passengers per year.
This will affect several hundred jobs - direct and indirect - announced the national airport on Monday.
Brussels Airport and their partners are currently examining the possibility of resuming flights that used to be provided by the Indian company in the direction of India and North America. In this context, Brussels Airlines and other Star Alliance companies - including Air India and United Airlines - would be given priority.
The move of Jet Airways to Schiphol next March reflects "the strong competition between European airports", said a Brussels Airport spokesman.

I think they have been posting ads for a while now. I believe an ad was seen early this year on controller.com

Jet Airways raises pay of junior pilots
News
17-Dec-2015 11:15 AM
Jet Airways is offering an extra monthly allowance of INR70,000 (USD1050) to a section of first officers (junior pilots) as part of retention enhancement efforts (Business Standard, 16-Dec-2015). The move comes in the wake of resignation by around 100 pilots, mostly first officers from its Boeing 737s and ATR fleet, in recent months over delay in command training. Jet Airways has around 1200 pilots operating Airbus, Boeing and ATR aircraft. Jet Airways also commented: “Jet Airways follows a structured plan for recruitment of pilots based on future projections. We employ pilots based on aircraft utilisation, fleet and schedule requirements. Resignations are part of the normal attrition faced by all airlines worldwide. From time to time Jet Airways restructures employee compensation and implements incentive schemes for its employees, including pilots, in line with company policies and requirements. Any scheme that exists, or is proposed, is compliant to the existing regulation. As a policy, we do not comment on specifics of employee compensation". |
