Regional airline from Andhra Pradesh Air Costa is starting its operation from Hyderabad from this December 10. Air Costa was launched in October by the LEPL Group. The airline is to operate flights from Hyderabad to Chennai, Vijayawada, Jaipur, Ahmedabad and Bangalore.
Air Costa is to invest about $100 million to expand its fleet of Embraer E-jets in the next two years, besides setting up an aircraft repair unit. It aims to add 10 E-jets by the end of 2014 and have a fleet of 25 aircraft by 2018.
For its economy class operations, Air Costa uses the Embraer E-jets (170 and 190), offering the same comfort as a large jet aircraft, the company said in a press release. The company plans to add a new destination every month as part of its expansion plans.
