Regional airline, Air Pegasus, has strengthened its fleet size to three aircraft with the induction of a new aircraft ATR 72-500 as part of its plan to take its fleet tally to 10 aircraft by the end of the calendar year.
“We will receive two more aircraft within two months and have ordered five more aircraft,” said Shyson Thomas, Managing Director, Air Pegasus.
“Amid weak economic sentiment worldwide, India has been showing a strong economic prospect that has culminated into a substantial rise in the country’s air traffic. Air Pegasus intends to propel this growth further by taking its new fleet strength to new destinations as also increase its current services in South India,” Thomas said.
With the new aircraft, Air Pegasus will spread it wings to Puducherry, Goa, Kochi and Vijayawada.
