SpiceJet, the countryâs #2 and most innovative low fare airline, turns 10 this week! To celebrate the occasion the airline today launched a special discount offer called the #CelebrationSale with fares starting as low as Rs 1,010 all inclusive.
SpiceJet, which flew its first commercial flight between Delhi and Ahmedabad in 2005 on a Boeing 737 aircraft, completes its first decade of flying on May 23, 2015. In this period, SpiceJet has helped fundamentally transform the airline industry in India with its network, pricing, promotions, product, branding, and marketing initiatives. In the process, it has created the âSpiceJet Effectâ, which through advance revenue management and demand stimulation efforts, has helped make average airfares in India more affordable than ever before, driving record passenger growth in the industry.
SpiceJet was also amongst the first low cost airlines to offer hot meals for sale on board, the first to offer dedicated extra legroom seats in a specially configured cabin, and the first to innovate in multiple other ways such as through the introduction of Bombardier Q400 turbo-prop aircraft to fly to smaller cities, through its popular weekend uniform, and through its unique celebrations of festivals such as Holi and Diwali.
âWhen SG101 took off from Delhi bound for Ahmedabad on May 23 2005, the iPhone was still two years away, Twitter was still a year away, and Facebook and YouTube were new-born babies. In that sense SpiceJet was one of the new breed of ventures â young, dynamic, different, friendly and approachable and with a sense of humour, somewhat iconoclastic, and with a refusal to accept the status quo. Ten years later, our DNA remains the same, which is why we are the warmest, friendliest, trendiest, and most fun airline in India today, the airline with spunk and with heart, the airline that has truly enabled more Indians to fly than ever before. Through ups and downs, the SpiceJet passion and spirit has never dimmedâ said Mr. Sanjiv Kapoor, Chief Operating Officer, SpiceJet Ltd. âWith this Celebration Sale, we are pleased to offer even more customers the chance to fly with one of the most colourful and innovative airlines in India todayâ, he added.
The three day sale launched today and will be open till midnight, May 21. The travel period covered in this sale is July 1, 2015 to October 15, 2015. The offer is available for all domestic flights on SpiceJetâs direct, via (same flight number hopping flight), and connecting flights network. International are not included in this offer.
