Akasa Air CEO Vinay Dube, in a recent interview with PTI, said that he doesn't think about the competition and believes that the aviation market is big enough for the company to succeed. Dube stressed that the focus is on service excellence and cost leadership and said the airline is looking to expand its network and international presence. Currently, the airline flies to Doha and Riyadh and will commence services to Abu Dhabi on July 11. Notably, it also offers a host of ancillary services, including allowing pets on board flights. "I don't think about competition and certainly don't think about it in encouraging or discouraging terms. If we focus on ourselves, the market is big enough for us to succeed," Dube said. When asked whether current competition is encouraging, Dube replied, "We don't spend so much time focused on what competition is doing unless we have things we can learn from... what can be improved upon... there is no other word than competition... good, bad, slow, fast, encouraging, discouraging, it is just competition." Notably, Akasa Air, which has more than 4,000 employees, had placed an order for 226 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. The company is expected to add more than 200 aircraft to its fleet over the next eight years. #akasaair #airline #aviation #success #company #indianstartupnews

#Dubai is set to double its passenger footprint and spend $52 billion on an ambitious #investment and expansion project. The new #InternationalAirport, DWC Dubai, will be built at the DWC site in south of Dubai and eventually replace #DXB. The $52 billion airport will be about five times the size of DXB in its current state, accommodating 400 #aircraft gates, five parallel runways, and new aviation technologies. The new terminal will enable the #airport to handle a passenger capacity of 260 million annually, compared to Sydney Kingsford Smith International's three runways and around 60 gates. The goal is to complete the first phase within the next 10 years, boosting capacity to accommodate 150 million passengers annually. The airport will also offer passengers no queues, no suitcases, and more destinations and #flights. Dubai's airlines, #Emirates and Fly Dubai, already connect to over 100 destinations, but the number of flights will skyrocket with more runways facilitating air traffic. (Credit: Escape)
