We are both humbled and honoured by the overwhelming trust, support and appreciation received from our Guests over the years, as we fondly recall the first steps we took on what has been a truly exciting journey in bringing the Joy of Flying to millions of our Guests. It gives me great pleasure to reaffirm our commitment to them and to our vision of connecting India to the world,” said Naresh Goyal, Chairman, Jet Airways’ Group on the occasion.

“Our partners also deserve a special mention for their consistent support that has surpassed our expectations. I also acknowledge the unwavering support of the Government towards opening up and promoting Indian aviation, facilitating greater access for travelers everywhere,” he said.

During the Silver Jubilee year, Jet Airways will be celebrating worldwide to thank the airlines’ family of over 16,000 employees and to convey appreciation to its valued guests for their continued support and trust.
