Nok Air plans to start flights to Bangalore

Melbourne: Bangkok-based Nok Air Co said it will triple its fleet over the next two and a half years as it plans to start flights to Bangalore this year, making it the first Thailand-based discount carrier to fly to the Indian city.
The company, partly owned by Thai Airways International, plans to lease 10 more Boeing Co. 737-400s, Patee Sarasin, chief executive officer of the Bangkok-based carrier, said.
The airline, which leases its current fleet from Thai Air, flies four Boeing aircraft and an ATR 72 made by France-based Avions de Transport Regional.
Nok Air plans to start flights between Bangkok and the southern Indian city of Bangalore in October and add four domestic destinations to the eight it currently serves by early 2007.
