Chandigarh: Smarting from a failed bid to takeover Air Sahara, market leader Jet Airways today said it had no plans to acquire any other airline and preferred to go it alone.
Jet Airways' 500 million dollar (Rs 2,300 crore) deal to take over the Air Sahara collapsed in June for want of regulatory approvals and has subsequently sparked a legal battle between the two carriers.
Prock-Schauer, who was here to announce the launch of services between Amritsar and London from August four, said that the airline would expand its fleet to 90 aircraft by next year from the present fleet strength of 43.
He said that the airways plans to fly to US from the summer of 2007. But the airlines is yet to secure Washington's permission to operate services to that country.
