Neos is expanding its network with a new direct flight to India, destination Amritsar in the state of Punjab. From this month the Boeing 737 Max flights have Milan Malpensa departures every Wednesday.
The aim is to carry 40,000 passengers in the first year
Neos thus aims at supporting the development of new tourist and business traffic between the two countries, with the objective of reaching about 40,000 passengers in the first year of operations. The Alpitour Group's carrier's plans include the expansion of capacity, with departures also from the airports of Rome Fiumicino and Verona from next year.
Consolidating relations between Italy, the USA and India
In addition to meeting incoming needs, by boosting arrivals from South-East Asia to Italy, the new route will be an important connection for the Milan-New York route. This means further growth for the airline, while consolidating relations between Italy, the USA and India, and paving the way for new and profitable tourist and economic collaborations.
“Neos is expanding its historic leisure business”
Among the most recent additions to Neos' long-haul network are Kazakhstan and Mauritius, an expansion that goes hand in hand with the growth of the fleet, which now consists of 15 aircraft, including the latest generation B737s, B737 MAXs and 787 Dreamliners."With the new intercontinental flight Neos expands into the Asian market, continuing its development strategy aimed at broadening its perimeter of action alongside expanding its historic leisure business," said Carlo Stradiotti, CEO of the company.
