New Delhi: SpiceJet on Friday said that it has secured flight rights for Hajj operations from seven Indian cities including Srinagar, Gaya, Guwahati, Bhopal, Indore, Aurangabad, and Vijayawada.
The airline spokesperson said that in the current fiscal year, SpiceJet garnered a revenue of Rs 337 crore from Haj operations, operating flights from five Indian cities. This year, the airline anticipates even higher revenue from its Hajj operations.
The commencement of the first phase of Hajj operations is scheduled for May 9, with flights to Medina.

This year, the airline plans to follow suit, particularly focusing on enhancing services for flights originating from Srinagar,” said the spokesperson.
