KF close on the heels of 9W
by l2kvirus on Jul 17, 2007 11:07 AM

Although Naresh Goyal has been successful so far in the airline industry, Kingfisher is not far behind.Vijay Mallya is making life hard for Goyal & with his advent in the international market expected anytime soon, it is going to be one helluva war in the indian skies, one that has never ever been witnessed before.
Jet has already lost its monopoly in the domestic routes with KingFisher matching it step by step, in such a short span, it has managed to take on Jet, which was supposedly the undisputed `King' of Indian Skies.
To be fair to Goyal, to maintain & run an airline like Jet has been run is commendable, but at the same time it is also important to make note of the fact that it had no serious competition, Sahara was bleeding, Indian was not properly `governed'. Taking over of Deccan has made KF the largest airline in India, whereas after taking over of Sahara, Jet has hardly managed to make an impact (too early to predict this though).Personally i feel Jet needs to take over Spice Jet(the only low cost airline doing amazingly well) to go one up on KF, otherwise it wont be long before it will be KF all the way
