Singh expressed their commitment to increasing capacity and utilising it as necessary as part of the airline's revival process. Currently, SpiceJet operates with an active fleet of about 30 aircraft.

Regarding the cargo business, Singh emphasized that the focus will remain on its expansion. He mentioned the creation of a separate company for cargo operations and plans to fund and expand it independently, as part of the ongoing restructuring efforts.
