Changes in Jet Konnect Ticket Booking

Jet Airways is one of the leading full-service airlines of India, serving over 70 global and domestic destinations with the help of its low-cost wing Jet Konnect. The airline is going through the process of turn around in order to deal with the competition. Now, people will be able to experience the comfort of full service by making Jet Konnect ticket booking. The goal of the carrier is to operate under a single brand name, and soon services of its subsidiary will also be provided with the name Jet Airways. As per industry experts, this step will allow travellers to identify the carrier easily and remove all sorts of confusion.

It was observed that fliers were confused regarding the name of the service provider, and many did not know that both operators work under the same company. The announcement regarding market re-positioning was made by the airline back in August 2014. It immediately started aligning and streamlining its operations in the country under a single brand in order to provide high-quality services consistently. Now, complimentary meals are included in the in-flight amenities provided on all domestic routes including Delhi to Mumbai, Jaipur to Varanasi and Aizawl Imphal flights. As per reports, 11 aircraft were serving under the brand name Jet Konnect that will be changed in the coming months. Names on these models will be repainted for the sake of uniformity. As far as memberships are considered, members of JetPrivilege will be eligible for JPMiles, and will now get benefits as per the structure designed for full-service operations. Industry watchers are of the opinion that the carrier is undergoing these significant changes to deal with the competition that reached to a new level with the entrance of Vistara in the industry.

Vistara – the Tata and Singapore Airlines (SIA) joint venture – recently received the Air Operator Permit (AOP), and opened bookings for Delhi, Mumbai and Ahmedabad routes. It is planning to expand its network in the country, and its target markets are the smaller towns of the country. As per reports, the pricing strategy of this new operator is attractive. It is believed that by introduction of the new Premium Economy Class in the country, it will attract fliers who can pay a bit extra for more comfort. For Jet Konnect Vistara will be nearest competitor which will offer better bargain power to travellers in low cost airlines segment.
