AirAsia India will begin operating flights in the country from June 12, with ticket sales starting today. The new carrier's Malaysian parent AirAsia CEO gave this information on Twitter yesterday. AirAsia India, a joint venture of AirAsia, Tata Sons and Arun Bhatia's Telestra Tradeplace, was granted flying license by aviation regulator DGCA earlier this month after 9-month- long wait and various legal hurdles. The start-up carrier recently completed inspections, including the Airbus A-320 craft, monitored by the DGCA.
