Before flight QP 1101 took off, the airline had organized a ceremony at Mumbai Airport to mark the occasion. Normally a child is born in nine, we took 12 months. Akasa kicked off operations with its first flight on the Mumbai – Ahmedabad route after an elaborate inauguration ceremony at the airport. The first was a US Air Force Northrop Grumman RQ-4B Global Hawk unmanned surveillance drone flying close to Ukraine. You can’t top that, Akasa!

Akasa Air's tryst with destiny (The Hindu BusinessLine)

The airline start-up has gone against the tide, placing its bets on Boeing aircrafts; it now needs to carve out a niche for itself.

Hopefully, the newest airline startup in the country will find that space easier to navigate. The shareholding pattern of the airline is quite widespread, with Jhunjhunwala holding nearly 46 per cent. It also claims that the 737 MAX family is the most fuel-efficient on the planet, providing the lowest seat-mile costs for a single-aisle aeroplane. What was seen as a problem only state-owned airlines faced in the eighties and the nineties is now hurting the private airlines too. Whether this was borne out of the fact that the Airbus A320 neos were not available or because Boeing's offer came with freebies and discounts, it still goes to the credit of the airline management to go with the US plane maker for its fleet. The order consists of the initial delivery of 18 aircraft by March 2023, followed by delivery of the remaining 54 over the next four years.
