Tiger Airways to launch first flight in India

Singapore-based low cost carrier Tiger Airways on Tuesday said it would start direct flights to Singapore from the city and Kochi beginning October 28.

The airliner would offer low-cost one-way fares starting Rs 1,600 from both the destinations. "We expect the aggressive ticket prices, which are nearly half of what other airlines are offering, to generate a strong demand from the region," Mr Davis, CEO, Tiger Airways said.

The airliner has established an extensive network of low fare routes across the Asia Pacific region. "Tiger Airways is now the only low fare airline to offer services across whole of Asia, encompassing China, South East Asia, India and Australia," he said.
