New entrants should serve domestic market first: GoAir
Expressing reservations over the new entrants wanting to fly globally, budget carrier GoAir has said domestic market needs to be served first before spreading wings abroad.
"First of all the role of the industry (airlines) should be to develop a stronger domestic market... when they play a role, then lets allow them also to grow international (market)," GoAir chief executive Giorgio De Roni told PTI here in an interaction.
He was responding to a question whether the much-talked about 5/20 rule needs to be scrapped to allow all players irrespective of their operations fly overseas.
Budget carrier AirAsia India and the just-launched Vistara, which is a joint venture between Tata Sons and Singapore Airlines, have long been pitching for abolition of the 5/20 rule to fly international.
