Dhaka: Jet Airways has deployed Airbus A330s from Mumbai to Kuwait, Jeddah, Bengaluru and Chennai this month, boosting capacity by 50% in some cases. Airbus A-330s, configured in two class, features 18 flat-bed seats in business class and 236 seats in economy.

“The introduction of wide-body services on our key domestic routes not only allows Jet Airways to scale up capacity in response to increase in demand but also guarantees guests a superior flying experience,” said Jet’s chief commercial officer, Jayaraj Shanmugam. “The A330… is designed with a spacious cabin, greater leg-room, lie-flat beds in Premiere and all the comforts usually associated with long-haul international travel.”

The new wide-body service between Mumbai and Chennai will begin on January 15, followed by Mumbai-Jeddah and Mumbai-Bengaluru on January 16 and Mumbai-Kuwait on January 18
