Vistara’s maiden Delhi-Lucknow flight takes off

Vistara’s inaugural flight from New Delhi to Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh took off this noon from Terminal 3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport. This is the ninth destination in the airline’s 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, as per a release. The airline will also soon commence services to Bengaluru.

 Phee Teik Yeoh, CEO, Vistara, said, “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. In fact, to mark our foray into this city, we are also looking forward to adding a flavour 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.”
