SPICEJET, India's latest budget airline, took to the air on 23 May.
The new carrier is a subsidiary of Royal Airways, an Indian listed company, which formerly traded under the name of Modiluft.
It will initially fly from Delhi to Mumbai via Ahmedabad and subsequently add Bangalore, Goa and Pune.
The airline begins with three new 189-seat Boeing 737-800s, adding 20 new Boeings by the end of 2006.
Spicejet is the latest in a whole series of Indian low fare airlines to take off over the last few months including Kingfisher (of beer fame), and the week previous and Air India Express.
Those already established include Air Sahara, Deccan and Jet Airways.
