ALHIND Air, a new player in the airline sector, is set to commence operations by mid-2025. The private airline, promoted by the Alhind Group, is expecting the first of the seven ATR 72-600 aircraft to be delivered in March next year.

The airline, which will start its operations with Kochi as the hub, started its office at the Kochi airport the other day. "We'll initially start with Kochi as our only base. However, our strategy is to adopt the 'multi-base concept' as part of expanding our network in a phased manner once we start the operations by the middle of next year. This is vital as the ATR 72, a proven aircraft most widely used in the country, has a maximum range of two-and-a-half hours of flying," Reena Abdul Rahiman, newly-appointed chief operating officer, told TNIE.
