Air Deccan to relaunch operations with fares starting at Re 1 on Dec 22

Air Deccan, an ultra-affordable domestic airline carrier known for airfares as low as Re 1, is gearing up to relaunch the services on December 22, according to a news report in LiveMint.

The company was founded by G. R. Gopinath in 2003 and was later merged with Kingfisher Airlines in 2008. However, due to financial constraints, the services were grounded in 2012.

Now, the airline operator in its second attempt would begin operations with four bases – Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and Shillong. Post-relaunch, the Air Deccan would operate daily return flights between Nashik - Pune and Mumbai
