Kingfisher Airlines eyeing US operations

Kingfisher Airlines is reportedly in talks with a US-based carrier for a strategic tie-up, whereby the UB Group promoted company can explore the possibility of kicking off its international operations. US airlines are allowed to fly into India under the Open Skies policy signed between the two countries.
The US-based carrier will fly into India under the Kingfisher brand if Kingfisher Airlines does not get the requisite regulatory approval from the Indian Government to start global operations. As per current rules, only those Indian airlines with more than five years of domestic operations are allowed to start international operations.
Among the first cities to be connected by Kingfisher Airlines' deal with the unnamed US carrier will be Bangalore and San Francisco.
