Travelers trust in chartered flights

IndiGo’s operational slowdown has led to an unexpected boom in the chartered flight market. Chartered jets are preferred by first class and business class passengers. Also the demand for private jets for destination weddings, corporate travel has increased. The trend of chartered flights is increasing across the country. One of the reasons is the increased choice of private planes that sit idle in hangars for several days a week. This gives scope for short distance travel by fixed wing and rotor wing aircraft.

As scheduled airline service collapses, general aviation passenger numbers will increase. During this crisis, many have had to cancel travel for weddings or medical emergencies. Although rotor-wing aircraft have not received as many bookings as fixed-wing aircraft, soon people will rely on short-haul helicopters for travel as well.
