Jet Airways, India’s premier international airline, will upgrade its daily flights between Delhi and Singapore to an Airbus 330 aircraft, effective from November 25, 2015.
This will enable guests on this high demand sector to experience enhanced cabin comfort on board the wide-body aircraft, while offering convenient connections for those travelling from India to Australia and the ASEAN region over Singapore on codeshare and interline partner airlines.
The upgraded service will offer 50 per cent more seat capacity than the Boeing 737 currently operating on this route.
The A330 offers guests Jet Airways’ award winning inflight experience with enhanced cabin comfort and a customised two-cabin seating configuration of 18 seats in premiere and 236 in economy. Premiere guests get to experience the luxury of flatbeds set in a herringbone layout, while guests travelling in economy can enjoy the comfort of a spacious cabin fitted with ergonomically-designed seating.
Gaurang Shetty, senior vice president, commercial, Jet Airways said, “We are happy to deploy Jet Airways’ spacious and modern wide-body aircraft to provide additional capacity on the highly popular Delhi – Singapore – Delhi route.”
“This sector has seen a steady growth in traffic, particularly among business travellers. In addition, connecting traffic over Singapore to Australia and the ASEAN region booked through codeshare and interline partners is also growing rapidly. The combination of comfort and luxury of wide-body services and attractive frequent flyer benefits makes Jet Airways the perfect option for travellers to Singapore and beyond”, he added.
Jet Airways flight 9W 018 will depart Delhi at 0955 hrs, and arrive in Singapore at 1815 hrs (LT). On the return, Jet Airways flight 017 will depart Singapore at 1945 hrs (LT) and arrives in Delhi at 2255 hrs.
