New Delhi: Private carrier Vistara on Monday forayed into Lucknow route with the launch of its daily flight service from the national capital.
Vistara's foray into Lucknow marks the addition of the ninth destination to Vistara’s route network which offers 239 weekly frequencies across metros and non-metros – Delhi, Lucknow, Pune, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Goa, Hyderabad, Guwahati and Bagdogra.
While there will be one daily flight on the Delhi-Lucknow-Delhi route to begin with, Vistara will increase the frequency to double daily flights from June 16, 2015.
“We are steadily expanding our pan India footprint, and the addition of Lucknow to our network seemed the most logical way to grow. The historical and culturally rich city of Lucknow has emerged as a leading commercial hub in the state of Uttar Pradesh while also offering a huge potential for tourism,” Vistara Chief Executive Phee Teik Yeoh said.
“In fact to mark our foray into this city we are also looking forward to adding a flavor of the Awadhi cuisine to our menu on-board. We are optimistic about the opportunities that this destination will offer for corporate and leisure travel to our customers,” he added.
