With the commencement of the Hyderabad flights, the airline will cross the milestone of over 575 weekly flights on a total of 21 announced routes across 14 cities, they said.
The airline will continue to grow its network to establish a strong pan-India presence focusing on the metro to tier 2 and 3 route connectivity,
supported by a fleet expansion plan that adds a new aircraft every 15 days.
Akasa Air’s fleet size, which is now 14, will be 18 aircraft by the end of March 2023, and over the next four years,
the airline will add 54 additional aircraft, taking its total fleet size to 72 aircraft, they added.
Also, Akasa Air has announced beefing up in-flight safety for flyers with visual impairments.

the Braille in-flight safety manual explains the safety instructions in English and Hindi, Akasa Air claims.
