 Posted: Thu Nov 29, 2012 2:55 pm Post subject: Which Destinations should Jet Airways start soon ? |
 |
|
I feel that Jet Airways needs to start the following destinations:
Mumbai - Tel Aviv - It would be an amazing sector for them with all the diamond merchants traveling non stop to this city.
Mumbai - Newark non-stop - All business travelers need the non stop flight to USA to get to work on time. This can free up some seats on the overfull BOM-BRU sector
Mumbai - Tokyo and if they get rights for Tokyo - Los Angeles - With ANA operating with such few seats and sky rocketing prices, Jet has the capability to operate non stop which Air India also does not.
Mumbai- Hong Kong - Shanghai - When the plane sits idle all day in Hong Kong it would be advised for them to start with Shanghai as well
They could aslo do Haj Routes, with the B77W, the flights are always overfull.
Delhi - Chicago via BRU, since there is a demand for this route or even Los Angeles would work out feasible via NRT o BRU .
The above flights dont even need to be daily one, 3times a week. |

In addition to BOM, should build up some sectors from HYD and BLR as well.

Hajj flights are seasonal, they are operated as charter (?) in many B73Hs.
As for HKG, I heard that parking fees are low (confirm please! I may be wrong.) So they'd rather keep the aircraft there rather spending more on the already busy route to Shanghai. They didn't succeed when they did this on the BOM-PVG-SFO route.

| Not sure why they dont do MAA-BKK. That sector is only offered by Thai Airways and Air Asia (not daily). Flights go pretty full. |

Even HYD-BKK is a good bet as the 4X by TG goes full on most days and SG has plas to start BKK from HYD.

Jet has already tried HYD, BLR and MAA to DXB and BRU and has not worked.
Right now they should concentrate on building BOM as their main hub, join an alliance and get with the BOM airport operator GVK to make the dom-intl-dom transfers easy so they can capture this market, which they are losing or unable to capture much.
If they join oneworld or Star, then DEL-ORD (either via BRU or non stop) may become feasible. |

Jet's fixation of beginning with nothing short of a daily run puts a dampener on most, if not all of those routes. Of course, who's to tell that those destinations won't be abandoned within weeks or months at the most - recall Johannesburg? Milan? Kuala Lumpur?

9W needs to start the following:
i. 4/5 weekly BOM-MAN with an A332
ii. More India-KSA nonstop flights especially DEL-RUH
iii. Reinstate the second daily BOM-RUH or make the current daily service an A333
iv. MAA-KWI daily B738...this is a 177,000 per year mkt segment with only KU operating nonstop 4 times per week. It can easily sustain a double daily 9W B738 operated service !!!
v. MAA-AUH nonstop daily B738 in code share with EY
vi. DEL-LHE 4/5 weekly only if it can connect via DEL in both directions to LHR/DAC/HKG/BKK/SIN etc
vii. BOM-KBL 4 weekly B737
viii. PNQ-AUH on B737 4 weekly in code share with EY
ix. PNQ-DXB 5 weekly B737

Who fails in New York ? Jet Airways, that's who.

Yeah. And JetZophrenia will JetFail on every single one of those.

In addition I think 9W should try tapping the market to MLE, which IMO is under-served from India. Maybe a W ops - BOM-MLE-TRV/COK-MLE-BOM. |

If the political developments there are anything to go by, MLE's future as a tourist hotspot is seriously under threat, and with it, its potential as a destination for travellers.

To their credit, they do serve NYC, just not JFK. I think they may be better or bringing ORD online as a third NA destination. Of course now that they pulled MAA-BRU, the whole BRU "hub" strategy seems to be unraveling, so who knows. |

How about MAA/BLR -BKK? But then they could not make MAA-KUL work. |

True - I think the GoI is going to act petty/vindictive - and they've already announced a "freezing" of the aid package to the Maldives. Of course the type of tourists who go to the Maldives couldn't care two hoots about the GoI and it's foreign policy....
