today announced the introduction of two new flights under the regional connectivity
scheme, UDAN for the under-served markets of Ahmedabad-Jaisalmer and Surat-Jaisalmer.
In its quest to on-board non-metros and smaller cities onto the national aviation map,
the airline has also introduced eight new flights from Gujarat.
The airline will launch direct flights on the Ahmedabad-Jaisalmer-Ahmedabad and
Surat-Jaisalmer-Surat routes starting October 31st and November 30th respectively. The
routes were awarded to the airline under UDAN II. With the introduction of the two
aforesaid routes, SpiceJet will operate 25 daily flights under UDAN in straight 14
months since its first launch in July 2017.
SpiceJet announced the launch of five new direct flights from Ahmedabad including an
UDAN flight and three new industry first flights. The airline also announced three
direct flights from Surat. SpiceJet will be the first and only airline to operate
direct flights on the Ahmedabad-Jabalpur, Ahmedabad-Dehradun, Ahmedabad-Patna and
Surat-Udaipur sectors which have a heavy demand from both business and leisure
travellers. A daily flight between Varanasi and Surat via Udaipur has also been
introduced.
Additionally, SpiceJet is all set to enhance its operations on the Surat-Goa sector with
a second direct flight from 30th November.
Ahmedabad–Patna flights will operate from 28th October while flights on
Ahmedabad-Jabalpur, Ahmedabad-Dehradun and Ahmedabad–Jodhpur sectors will start from
31st October. The first flight services under Surat-Udaipur and Udaipur-Varanasi routes

will be deploying its Boeing 737 on the Ahmedabad-Patna route, its fleet of Bombardier
Q-400 aircrafts will be engaged on the remnant new routes.
Shilpa Bhatia, Chief Sales and Revenue Officer, SpiceJet said,
“SpiceJet has been introducing flights on UDAN routes at a great pace. In a span of
mere 14 months we have launched 25 flights under UDAN which is a new milestone for us
and the Indian aviation and we are proud of this. The new UDAN flights connecting
