Dubai, Nov 28: Welcoming the first scheduled Spicejet flight on Friday, November 27, Ras-Al-Khaimah Internation Airport (RAK Airport) welcomed the aircraft with a 'water salute' heralding the commencement of a new era of connectivity between India and RAK.

Among the officials and dignitaries greeting the passengers were Uttam Chand, Community Affairs Consul at Consulate-General of India in Dubai and Sanjay Khanna, CEO of Ras Al Khaimah International Airport.

“We, at the Department of Civil Aviation Ras Al Khaimah, are thrilled and excited to welcome SpiceJet to Ras Al Khaimah International Airport. This new service will open new routes for us to India, which is our largest market. With the facility to connect to more than 28 destinations in India via Delhi, it will stimulate consumer demand, provide connectivity and ease to our residents, and promote international tourism,” said Sheikh Salem bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Chairman of the Ras Al Khaimah Department of Civil Aviation and Ras Al Khaimah International Airport.
