New Delhi: It is interesting to see that the competitors in the air are really cooperating on the ground. Air Deccan and Jet Airways have got into an agreement, whereby if there is a last minute cancellation of either flights, then the passengers could be accommodated.
Now, there are couple of advantages to this. One is that it increases their load factors in case of a cancellation. It also gives Air Deccan a lot of credibility being associated with Jet. So it is a win-win situation for both of them.
It is learnt that going forward, they are looking at other areas of cooperation. For instance, they are saying that they may look at the inter-lying arrangement, where Jet may sell tickets from London to smaller cities, where Air Deccan flies. So passengers can be transported from Deccan to Bombay or Delhi from where Jet Airways can fly to London.They are also looking at resources sharing at the ground level.
But of course, these two agreements are still some time away. The only agreement that they have signed currently is in case of last minute cancellations of flights
