The airline has applied to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation for a No Objection
Certificate (NOC) to import the planes. Subject to regulatory approvals the aircraft
would begin joining SpiceJet's fleet in the next ten days.
Ajay Singh, Chairman and Managing Director, SpiceJet said, "We are taking all
possible proactive measures to deal with the sudden reduction of aviation capacity in
the Indian market. SpiceJet continues to work closely with the government and
regulatory authorities to help minimise passenger inconvenience. We will induct as
many as 27 planes in a record time of less than two weeks and are hopeful that these
inductions will help considerably ease the pressure situation."
