In a tweet, the company said, “There’s really nothing like home! Inviting former Jet Airways cabin crew to come back and join us in relaunching India’s classiest airline. Base: Delhi Note: For now we are inviting female crew only. Male crew recruitment to commence as we scale up.”

The opening batch of the cabin crew members in the airline will consist of former staff only.
