Chennai, Sept 22:

        SpiceJet is now starting its services from Chennai to Port Blair. The airline made this announcement within two weeks of its commitment to start its services to Port Blair from Kolkata. With the induction of the two new Boeing 737-800 aircraft, the daily direct flight service on both the sectors will commence from 5 October 2007.

        Port Blair will be the 16th destination that SpiceJet will be flying and with the expansion of its network, the airline will be operating 96 flights a daily. Announcing the new sectors, Siddhanta Sharma, executive chairman, SpiceJet Ltd. said, 'We at SpiceJet aim to make traveling more accessible and affordable for majority of travelers. Looking at the limited flight service and witnessing the rising number of tourists traveling to Port Blair, we aim to fill this gap by connecting Port Blair to Chennai and Kolkaka.'

        He added, 'We are highly delighted with the customer response and the confidence that our loyal customers and travel agents have shown in us enabling us to fly to newer destinations. The recent TAFI Award (Travel Agents Federation of India) which was conferred to SpiceJet for being the most successful low cost carrier in the country endorses our commitment to give the best services to our customers.'
