MADURAI: Private carrier Paramount Airways, which has a strong presence in South India, would enter the Western Indian skies by the end of this year and add 15 more aircraft to its kitty in the next three years.
Talking to visiting reporters here after the launch of Paramount's fourth flight in the Chennai-Madurai sector last evening, company's Managing Director M Thiagarajan said the airline would try to provide maximum number of services across the cities in the Western region.
However, he did not divulge the cities the airliner would serve in the region.
"By early 2010, we will have a national presence," he added.
Paramount will induct 15 more Brazilian made 70-seater Embraer 170/175 and 110-seater Embraer 195 aircraft in phases within the next 36 months, he said.
The carrier already owns five Embraer 170/175 aircraft and connects eight destinations in South India through 50 daily flights.
Though a newcomer in the aviation sector, the airliner carries an average 100 tonnes of cargo daily, he said.
Paramount will also launch its services to Tiruchirapalli in Tamil Nadu and Kozhikode in Kerala soon.
