Jet Airways is an Indian airline based in Mumbai, India. As of February 2016, it is the second largest airline in India after IndiGo with a 21.2% passenger market share. It operates over 300 flights daily to 68 destinations worldwide from its main hub at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport and secondary hubs at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Chennai International Airport, Indira Gandhi International Airport, Kempegowda International Airport and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport.
Jet Airways was incorporated as a limited liability company on 1 April 1992. It started operations as an air taxi operator on 5 May 1993 with a fleet of four leased Boeing 737-300 aircraft. The airline was granted a scheduled airline status on 14 January 1995. On 12 May 1994, all the shares were transferred to Tailwinds International, whose equity capital was held by Naresh Goyal (60%), Gulf Air (20%) and Kuwait Airways (20%). In October 1997, as per the directive of Ministry of Civil Aviation forbidding foreign investment in passenger airlines, Goyal took control of the entire company.
As of 17 April 2019, Jet Airways has suspended all flight operations, due to lenders rejecting Rs 400 crore of emergency funding. On 18 April 2019, Jet Airways' last flight flew from Amritsar to Mumbai and its membership in the International Air Transport Association (IATA) was suspended.
