SpiceJet plans to launch a daily flight between Madurai and Colombo from September this year. The launch will make SpiceJet the first international airline to operate from the Southern city.
“The flight will probably happen in early September. We will use a Q 400 aircraft to launch the flight,” the airline Chief Executive Officer, Neil Mills, told Business Line . Airline officials said there were still some last-minute issues that the airport had to sort out with the customs and immigration authorities. The airline is also looking to expand its international presence with flights to Riyadh, Guangzhou and Hong Kong from Delhi. Mills said the airline also plans to launch flights to Bangkok from either Hyderabad or Kolkata.
“The flights will all start before October. Some of these will probably not be daily flights but we will build up to a daily,” Mills said.
