Tajik Air, the national carrier of Tajikistan, recently appointed AISATS as its official ground handler at Delhi International Airport. It had launched last week a passenger flight every Friday using a Boeing 737 aircraft.
"We congratulate Tajik Air for commencing their operations in India. We are pleased to provide ground handling services to Tajik Air at Delhi International Airport. We look forward to contributing to the growth of Tajik Air in India and also to the growth of trade and relations between both countries," AISATS CEO Willy Ko said in a statement.
Tajik Air's India Representative Avnish Bakshi said AISATS has proven abilities on ground handling services and "Tajik Air wants its customers to get the best experience in India."
He also said that the airline was "planning to launch Delhi-Sharjah operations soon."
AISATS, which started ground handling services at Delhi in August 2010, also handles cargo in Delhi. It provides both services at Hyderabad, Bangalore, Trivandrum and Mangalore airports too.
Besides Air India and other Indian carriers, its customers include Singpore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Emirates, Etihad, Malaysian and Pakistan International Airlines.
