Air Carnival's fleet currently consists of a 8 years old ex-Kingfisher ATR 72-500 (MSN-767), registered as VT-CMA (70-seats). According to Air Carnival's CEO Manish Kumar Singh, the promoters are mulling ramp up investment to $12 million and two more ATRs are likely to join the airlines fleet in October this year. Now, it is to see how the expansion program unfolds in the coming months as Air Pegasus and TruJet which also set ambitious growth target are operating just three aircraft fleet each after one year of operation. Unlike its peers, Air Carnival designates separate flight numbers for each leg of the rotation and therefore offering no direct flight (one-stop) between Coimbatore and Madurai. The airline's initial schedule shows only four flights a day and block time of only five hours. With the last flight of the day terminating at 1:20 pm there is ample room for adding another rotation on the same sector or adding new sectors on the same aircraft. The airline is scheduled scale up its operation in next few weeks most likely by adding second daily frequency on its existing Coimbatore-Chennai-Madurai sector.

The new Air Carnival service on the 405 km (219 nm) Coimbatore-Chennai sector is going to face stiff competition from three other carriers. As 62 weekly flights are already operating on the route including four daily A320 flights by IndiGo, three ATR-72 flights by Jet Airways and two flights by SpiceJet on B737 and Bombardier Q-400 one each. Similarly, competition on the 418 km (225 nm) Madurai-Chennai sector is intense with four other carriers already operating 70 weekly flights. Air India operates one daily A319 service, SpiceJet's two flights are on B737 and one on turboprop. Jet Airways operates five daily ATR services. Fellow regional carrier Air Pegasus too operates one daily frequency between the two cities.

ReplyDeleteI`m Charlie Bean and I live in Toronto Canada. I needed a loan to buy a house and I searched for a mortgage loan from all banks and I was denied and I loss hope of having my own house until I came across a post just as you reading my post now. I saw a post about a Financial Service Company who gives loan at 2% interest so I applied in STEAKLEY FINANCIAL SERVICES using their email steakleyfinancialservices@yahoo.com. And my loan was granted it was like a dream but was true and now am a owner of a house in Toronto and am paying the mortgage loan with no stress and I also requested if I can be granted a business loan and I was also granted. Now am living a happy life, I will advice you if you have an financial problems and you need money to settle it so you can pay with no stress just contact Steakley Financial Service at their email Steakleyfinancialservices@yahoo.com.
