India's newest airline Yuvajet, headquartered in Ranchi, has delayed its inaugural flight launch from November 2017 to June 2018. It now plans to launch its first revenue flight from Ranchi to Chennai via Tirupati or Shidiri in the first week of June 2018.
Yuvajet's founder Kumar Kinshuk who showed the ATR 72-600 aircraft model to Sayacinta - Airpost explained that the airline will cancel its ATR 72-600 aircraft order, in favour of 5 cheaper Embraer ERJ 145 regional airliners after the ATR aircraft import permit is approved.
Yuvajet will sign the purchase deal for 5 ERJ 145 aircraft with a London-based asset management company by the first week of December 2017 and put the delivered aircraft later under C checks, i.e. aircraft component maintenance checks.
ERJ 145 test flights from Ranchi are expected to follow during spring in 2018 before Yuvajet receives its AOC from DGCA to commence scheduled flights by June 2018 as the airline wants to avoid fog and winter season huddles.
Kumar said the smaller 50-seater ERJ aircraft will help Yuvajet extend its domestic reach in India and connect remote tier 2 and tier 3 Indian cities to major metropolitan Indian cities such as Chennai and Delhi. It is the airline's objective to foster more confidence in community feeder air travel among the residents, city governments and its customers by owning affordable aircraft.
Thirty to forty per cent of Yuvajet routes will be pioneer routes, according to Kumar. Planned destinations on Yuvajet's route map not only include Ranchi, Tirupati, Shidiri and Chennai, but also encompass Salem, Bhubneshwar, Pune, Raipur, Allahabad, Delhi, Surat, Mangalore and Coimbatore.
Ranchi, the capital and "City of Waterfalls" of the Indian State of Jharkhand, and Surat the capital of the Gujarat State, will be its air hubs.
Yuva means Youth in Hindi while the airline livery by APG Design features the airline name in navy blue and violet, violet and magenta bands signify vibrance and ingenuity, the navy blue Ashoka Chakra 24-spoke wheel symbolic of India national heritage, and the stylized capital Y linking the small letter j and device of an aircraft appears to form the shape of a beak and an orb in the band suggesting foresight and confidence in flight service.
Formed in 2016, Yuvajet is the commercial brand of Yuva JetLines Airways. It is a proposed feeder carrier and Kumar's family-owned venture with a few investors from Dubai.
Yuvajet web-site www.yuvajet.com starts functioning from 27 November 2017 onwards. Monitor the web-site and Yuvajet Facebook for further updates to and after Yuvajet's month of flight launch.
