Jet Airways (India) Ltd plans to strike deals with European railway operators to let passengers reach destinations its air network doesn’t cover.
Foreign airlines such as Lufthansa, Air France SA, Emirates and Continental Airlines Inc. already have such arrangements with railway firms, allowing passengers to carry on with their journey by train after a flight, or vice versa, on a single ticket. The concept is particularly popular in Europe. Jet Airways has sought the civil aviation ministry’s approval to sign such agreements before it approaches European governments for similar clearances.
Jet Airways serves 24 foreign cities through its European hub in Brussels. This month, it has started daily non-stop flights from Delhi to Milan, Italy. The airline has also requested the aviation ministry for permission to fly to more European cities ahead of expanding its fleet of 112 aircraft next summer.
