The airline has already announced 28 weekly direct flights. The flights will cover its newly launched sector between Bengaluru and Mumbai starting from August. The airline completed its inaugural phase of the network development, covering multiple cities like Ahmedabad, Kochi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru making, enabling it to have a total of 82 weekly flights at the start of its operations.
