Here’s some good news for all those who prefer flying Business Class but have to often hold back due to sky-high ticket prices! With Jet Airways suspending all operations from April, SpiceJet has acquired ten of their Boeing 737-800 aircrafts, and has used them to launch SpiceBiz, their new Business Class product. Travellers can now book Business Class tickets on major domestic routes for starters, at a fraction of the original prices. For instance, a Business Class seat can be booked for just ₹15,999 on a Delhi-Mumbai flight, and for ₹20,016 on a Delhi-Bangalore flight. Unbelievable, isn’t it?
However, SpiceJet has not changed the seat configuration of Jet’s Boeing 737-800 aircrafts, and is servicing between major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Hyderabad, from 11th May. The airline is offering 8, 12 and 28 Business Class seats on its B737-700/800/900 aircrafts. SpiceJet has also hired around 500 personnel from Jet Airways’ staff, and has replaced the iconic Jet Airways logo on the aircrafts with their own.
Some experts believe that the Business Class fares are likely to decrease in the coming days, since the largest provider of Business Class seats, Jet Airways, is no longer operating.
What else do you get?
Business Class travellers will be assigned a dedicated 2×2 cabin at the front of the jet, along with gourmet meals and beverages, extra baggage allowance, priority boarding and luggage access, dedicated check-in counters at some airports, and dedicated coaches. That’s not all! They will also get lounge access at Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Varanasi, Jaipur, Guwahati, and Kochi airports.
