Grounded Go First again delays flight restart
Airline Go First has again pushed back its planned operational restart.
The cash strapped airline won’t restart flights until at least November 30.
It again cites operational reasons.
“We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the flight cancellations,” the airline said.
“We acknowledge the flight cancellations might have disrupted your travel plans and we are committed to providing all the assistance we can.”
The company has already pushed back its planned restart date countless times.
It hopes to reopen reservations for future bookings soon.
“The company has filed an application for immediate resolution and revival of operations. We will be able to resume bookings shortly. We thank you for your patience,” it added.
Go First abruptly cancelled all flights in early May and filed for voluntary bankruptcy.
It blamed in part a dispute with US-based engine maker, Pratt and Whitney.
Regulator the Directorate General of Civil Aviation granted Go First the right to resume scheduled flight operations under conditions.
It must restart with interim funding and a set number of aircraft and flights.
The airline currently employs over 4, 000 staff.
