Paramount Airways, the country’s only full business class airline, is close to signing contracts worth Rs 4,000 crore with Boeing and Airbus.
It has decided to order 10 new fleet — A330 and A350 from Airbus, and B777 and B787 from Boeing — for its proposed overseas operations, a person close to the development said. He said Paramount will pay in instalment to take delivery of these aircraft within 18 months of placing orders.
When contacted, Paramount MD M Thiagarajan told ET: “I cannot reveal anything now, but we are finalising deals with two foreign aircraft makers for acquisition of fleet. We will make an announcement in a few weeks.” Mr Thiagarajan further said the airline would launch operations in South-East Asia, West Asia, the US and Europe. The existing regulations require an airline to complete five years in the domestic market to be eligible for launching international operations. Paramount has been running operations for the past four years.
Paramount Airways, which has been the only profit-making home-grown carrier, is the market leader in South India with a 26% share and reported a 45% increase in passenger traffic in January compared to last year. The carrier has a network of more than 20 destinations across the country. It operates 1,600 services every month, which will be scaled up to 2,200 by October. It has been hiring pilots, cabin crew, airport managers, in-flight supervisors and ground instructors.

NEWS| Kingfisher cheques in late, misses AAI a/cs
A cheque issued by Kingfisher Airlines to the Airports Authority of India (AAI) for an amount of Rs 77 crore has bounced, highlighting the continuing financial woes of India's top airline in a sector reeling under heavy losses.
The cheque issued by Kingfisher Airlines to the AAI towards clearing pending service charges has been dishonoured for lack of funds, according to an official in the AAI’s finance department who didn’t want to be named. The Axis Bank cheque dated April 27 was sent for collection at the authority’s HDFC Bank account in New Delhi on Tuesday, and later on Wednesday. The cheque bounced because of “insufficient funds”.
Kingfisher Airlines, India’s largest private carrier by traffic, owes Rs 180 crore to AAI for various aeronautical charges on services delivered till March 2009 including landing, parking and housing; passenger service, route navigation facility, terminal usage and baggage X-ray amongst others.
When contacted, a Kingfisher Airlines spokesman said in a written reply: “Kingfisher Airlines is in full compliance with the mutually agreed terms for settlement of outstanding dues of the AAI. Any suggestion to the contrary is incorrect.”
However, a senior Kingfisher executive, who asked not to be named given the sensitivity of the issue, said that the cheque had indeed been issued to AAI. He refused to clarify anything further on the matter.
Repeated attempts to contact an AAI official who is authorised to speak to the media were unsuccessful.
Kingfisher had earlier delayed its periodic payments to vendors including airport operators and jet fuel suppliers.
