Air Indias possible entry into Star Alliance will boost rev


BERLIN:India's national carrier Air India's expected entry into the elite Star Alliancelater this year will expand its global footprint and boost its revenues,according to the airline's Frankfurt-based Regional Manager for Central EuropeRatan Bali.

The last major hurdle for Star Alliance membership wasremoved when Air India and the Indian Airlines completed the integration oftheir codes and began using a common code two weeks ago, Bali told PTI at thetravel trade show ITB Berlin.

The world's biggest fair, which kickedoff on March 9, concludes today.

A common code for both the airlineswas a condition for Air India to join the alliance, he added.

Theairline also started using a new reservation system in preparation of joiningthe alliance.

Star Alliance network is a global leading airlinenetwork, in terms of daily flights, destinations and countries flown to andmember airlines.

It was established in 1997 to offer customersworldwide reach and a smooth travel experience. In order to become a member, anairline must comply with the highest industry standards of customer service,security and technical infrastructure.

Bali said the planned deliveryof the first batch of Boeing 787 'Dreamliner' aircraft to Air India later thisyear will also play a crucial role in expanding the airline's internationaloperations.

These aircrafts, which have an eight-hour flight range,could be deployed in the Indo-European or Indo-far East sectors, headded.

Air India has placed orders for 27 'Dreamliners' and Boeinghad recently announced that the first batch of aircraft will be delivered by theend of this year.

Talking about revenue, he said Air India hasrecouped its revenue losses from the closure of the European Hub at theFrankfurt airport last year, by increasing the passenger volume and reducing itsoperational costs in Frankfurt.

As part of its operationalrestructuring process, the airline rerouted four flights operating from Delhi toChicago and from Mumbai to New York via Frankfurt airport as direct flights onthe India-US routes.

It closed down its European hub in Frankfurt atthe end of last year. Since then, the airline has been operating a dailynon-stop flight between Delhi and Frankfurt.
