New Delhi: About 70 per cent of international traffic to and from India opt international carriers and not Indian carriers, as the former have a clear cut lead over their Indian peers in terms of flights in and out of the country, says a report — Maximising the contribution of aviation to the Indian Economy - released by Tata SIA Airlines on Tuesday.
"The fact that 70 per cent people flying in and out of India opt for international airlines is something that is a concern for us. This is primarily because the Indian carriers have not been able to provide flight options in the international carrier," said Mukund Rajan, Director at Vistara, a Tata-SIA joint venture company.
Rajan added that the abolition of five years and 20 aircraft abolition norm for flying international will allow airlines to add flights wherever they want to and provide options to fliers.
