If everything goes as planned, Jettwings will become the first-ever airline from the Northeast region to operate in the country.

Once they acquire all the necessary regulatory approvals, including the Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Jettwings Airways intends to introduce a fleet of modern aircraft, including turbofan and turbo-propelled planes. Their goal is to offer premium economy services for regional travel, emphasizing superior service, comfort, and convenience for passengers.

To support the initial funding of the project, Jettwings Airways has allocated Rs 100 crore.

Recognizing the demand for reliable and high-quality regional services, Jettwings Airways has assembled a team of experienced aviation professionals. The airline also intends to introduce a loyalty program to reward frequent flyers.
