Jet Airways: How one of India’s biggest airlines imploded
CNNNew Delhi CNN Business — Almost 26 years to the day after its first flight, one of India’s biggest airlines has thrown in the towel. Jet Airways announced late Wednesday that it was indefinitely suspending all flights after it ran out of cash, marking a swift downfall for an airline that dominated India’s fast-growing aviation industry for years. When India liberalized its economy in 1991 and opened up its aviation sector to private players, Goyal seized his chanceand Jet Airways began operating in May 1993. The no-frills model of the newer airlines allowed them to cut costs and drive down ticket prices, providing India’s price-conscious first-time flyers with far cheaper alternatives than Jet Airwayscould offer with its premium service. The banks say they’re still hopeful of finding a rescue buyer for 75% of the company before May 10 but the longer the wait, the less chance Jet Airways has of surviving.
