Our Bureau

Bangalore, Aug 30 Jet Airways has chosen Bangalore as its next gateway after the major metros of Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai for its international flights.

The new Indian international carrier plans to first connect Singapore before embarking on its long haul service to US cities from the IT Capital. The Singapore connection will start in December with a daily flight from Bangalore, said Mr U. Harish Shenoy, General Manager, South and Sri Lanka.

Addressing a press conference here on Thursday, Mr Shenoy said the airline was planning to schedule its flights to New York and San Francisco from the new Bangalore International Airport from April 2008, when the airport was expected to be for commercial operation. Showcasing passenger facilities in its First, Premium and Economy, the airline official said South India accounts for 40 per cent of its passenger traffic.
