Akasa Air takes delivery of first 737 Max Aircraft

Billionaire investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala owned Akasa Air, on Thursday took delivery of the first 737 Max aircraft from Boeing.Three months after Indian aviation regulator DGCA gave the green light to Max planes, Akasa Air had on November 26 last year signed a deal with Boeing to purchase 72 Max aircraft. Vinay Dube, Founder, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Akasa Air, said, "This is indeed a symbolic milestone in the journey of Akasa Air, bringing us one step closer to the process of obtaining our Air Operator's Permit (AOP) and leading to our commercial launch." It received the no-objection certificate from the Ministry of Civil Aviation in August 2021 to launch commercial flight operations.

The air carrier is set to begin operations at a time when the country's aviation industry is gradually recovering from the massive impact of the Covid pandemic. The industry is also set to witness more competition as Jet Airways readies to take off again after a gap of nearly three years. The airline now plans to restart commercial flight operations in the July-September quarter this year.
