Indian low-cost carrier Kingfisher Airlines has signed an outsourcing deal with state-owned Indian Airlines.

The outsourcing deal covers ground handling, engineering and aircraft maintenance support. In addition, Kingfisher will also buy the surplus flight kilometres that IA operates on non-profitable routes. Kingfisher, which started operating on 9 May, plans to break even in the first year of operations, said its promoter Vijay Mallya quoted by the Navhind Times.
