NEW DELHI: The legacy carriers are striking back with a vengeance. The group of three legacy carriers Jet Airways, Indian Airlines and Air Sahara seem to be clawing back with their combined share of the domestic aviation pie growing to 62.5% in August this year.


Their combined share had dipped to nearly 60% in recent months. This reversal, incidentally, comes during traditional lean season for domestic air travel, reflecting corporate travellers still prefer the full-service airlines over the growing lot of budget carriers for their transportation needs.


According to latest air travel data with the directorate general of civil aviation (DGCA), the state-owned Indian Airlines reported the fastest growth during the month with its market share surging to 22.6%.


The other airlines that reported a growth in marketshare include Air Sahara and Kingfisher Airlines, while Jet Airways, Air Deccan and SpiceJet saw their marketshares slip to a lower altitude.


Data showed Jet's share dropped to 31.1%, while Air Deccan stood at 18.3% and SpiceJet at 6.3%.


Air Sahara which has been stepping on gas with new aggressive schemes, saw its share rise to 8.8%, followed closely by Kingfisher at 8.7%. Paramount Airways, GoAir and IndiGo together accounted for the remaining 4.2%.
