SINGAPORE, August 22 2006: Jet Airways, India’s premier airline, is pleased to offer special, inaugural air fares for its new service between Singapore and Delhi, to be launched on September 06, 2006.

For passengers travelling in groups of two or more, the deal is even more attractive with a special return fare of SGD450 per person. For the Club Premiere (Business Class) passengers, the promotional air fare stands at SGD1596, exclusive of taxes. This offer is valid from August 11, 2006 until September 30, 2006 and is subject to certain terms and conditions.
