New Delhi: Budget carrier SpiceJet on Wednesday said it will commence operations from Huballi from May 14. The low cost carrier said Huballi – awarded under the second round of UDAN, the Central government’s regional connectivity scheme (RCS) – will be its fifth destination under the RCS.

“With the addition of Huballi-Chennai and Huballi-Hyderabad UDAN routes, SpiceJet will operate six daily UDAN flights,” SpiceJet said in a statement. The airline had launched services on the Mumbai-Porbandar, Mumbai-Kandla, Jaipur-Jaisalmer and Hyderabad-Puducherry routes under the scheme last year.

SpiceJet said it has offered a limited period introductory all-inclusive one-way fare for each of the new routes starting at Rs 2,694 “applicable for bookings made on a first come first serve basis”.
