India's Jet eyes profit by '17 with boost from Etihad
Add BT as a preferred source[NEW DELHI] Jet Airways, India's second-biggest carrier, forecast yesterday a return to profit in three years through cost-cuts, route-sharing with new partner Etihad Airways and restructuring of hefty debt.
The publicly traded airline, which has not posted an annual profit since 2007, has been struggling in an overcrowded market beset by cut-throat fare wars, high fuel costs and shoddy infrastructure.
"The game plan is in place, it's now about delivery," Jet Airways' new chief executive Cramer Ball told reporters in New Delhi.
