GURUGRAM, October 8, 2018 : SpiceJet, the country’s favourite carrier,
today launched daily direct services on the Delhi-Kishangarh-Delhi route, thus
providing the much needed connectivity to Ajmer and Pushkar.
The marble city of Kishangarh marks SpiceJet’s eighth destination nationally and the
second sector in Rajasthan after Jaipur-Jaisalmer-Jaipur to be connected under UDAN.
The airline was awarded the route under UDAN II.
SpiceJet is the first and only airline to offer daily direct air connectivity between
Kishangarh and Delhi. A traditional lamp lighting ceremony was organized marking the
inauguration of the operations and the first passenger was welcomed by SpiceJet
officials and gifted with mementoes. In line with the aviation tradition to mark key
milestones, the flight which was flagged off from Delhi, was greeted with a grand water
cannon salute upon its arrival at the Kishangarh airport.
Ajay Singh, Chairman and Managing Director, SpiceJet said, “SpiceJet is
proud to put Kishangarh (Ajmer) on the country’s aviation map and connect it with Delhi
and multiple domestic and international destinations on our network. The new flight
services will unleash the tourism potential of the city like never before providing a

“This is our second UDAN sector in Rajasthan after Jaipur-Jaisalmer. I am delighted that
SpiceJet is helping realise Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of ensuring that
every Indian can fly.”
