MUMBAI: Jet Airways today
said that effective October 18, it will launch a new Mumbai-Sharjah service,
its sixth daily flight to the UAE from the city, apart from resuming
services to Kuwait and Bahrain from
Kochi, as part of its winter schedule.
"Our new daily return service Mumbai to Sharjah will be the sixth daily service between Mumbai and the UAE, in addition to the existing four daily services to Dubai and one daily flight to Abu Dhabi," the airline said in a statement.
The return services on the Kochi-Kuwait sector will operate four times a week-- Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays respectively, the airline said, adding the Kochi-Bahrain return services will operate on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
The introduction of these flights will further strengthen Jet's presence in the Gulf where it has emerged as one of the leading carriers to and from the country of late. The airline will deploy the next-generation Boeing 737-800s on these routes, offering premiere and economytickets.
Announcing these services, chief commercial officer Sudheer Raghavan said, "in keeping with the growing demand for connectivity between the Gulf and our country, as well as onwards via our international hub in Mumbai, Jet is delighted to enhance its services on the India-Gulf sector in the winter schedule. We are confident that the new services will prove popular with our guests."
