Air India Express has finalized a blueprint to launch cheap-fare domestic routes from April. The plan includes shifting base from Mumbai to Kochi, rebranding to Express India and improving utilization of its 21-strong fleet from nine hours to 12.5 hours daily.
The airline will start operations for Kochi-Hyderabad-Bhubaneswar-Kolkata and Kochi-Ahmedabad-Jaipur. It plans to include smaller cities while flying between major hubs. The fares in the domestic leg are 40 per cent cheaper than full service carriers and will compete with low-cost carriers.
As of now, Air India Express only sells tickets through it’s websites but the Airline is planning to sell its tickets through various travel portals in the near future.
The airline is also upgrading its ticketing system to a web-based dynamic fare system to make it competitive. As of now, the fares are calculated manually.
