Jet, Sahara to fly to France- The Economic Times
NEW DELHI: After London and Singapore, private carriers Jet Airways and Air Sahara could soon get permission to fly to Paris.
India has signed a revised bilateral aviation agreement with France, incorporating a provision for multiple designation of airlines. This will allow the government to designate Jet and Sahara to use the landing rights available to the India.
Connectivity between India and France is set to improve as the revised agreement allows for 35 flights per week between India and France as compared to 14 earlier.
While Air-India is the only Indian carrier flying to Paris at the moment, Air France operates services to Delhi and Mumbai. The Paris-based carrier can now expand its operations in India to cover Bangalore and Hyderabad too, apart from the four metros.
Indian airlines have also been allowed fifth freedom rights to operate flights to New York and four other points in the US via France. Similar connectivity to Montreal and Toronto in Canada has also been cleared, according to civil aviation ministry sources.
