Earlier it bought Air Sahara and introduced Jet lite and gave stiff competition to Kingfisher in the domestic sector. Currently it operates 340 flights across 44 destination such as Malasyia, Maldives, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Nepal etc.

It has got a lot of space and capacity, which we will be using. Since (Belgian carrier) Sabena closed down, the airport was being operated only by the Brussels Airlines and some American carriers. We are the only Indian carrier to be creating such a hub on foreign soil,”

Jet Airways Chief Naresh Goyal told PTI in an interview here.

Our vision is to make Jet Airways match larger carriers like Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. Through this hub, we will be participating in the European market as well,” he said, revealing for the first time the airline’s plans about the Brussels operations.
