The crew uniform of Jet Airways was one of the most elegant across global airlines winning frequent awards !
An evolution of the crew uniform which had the imprint of Sabyasachi Mukherjee to the last one being designed by Italian Robert Capucci #aviation

Jet Airways was one of the first Indian airline to understand the power of smaller aircraft to make 💰 in India's regional routes
It was the first Indian airline to fly the @ATRaircraft aircraft
The first 68 seater arrived sometime in 2013
The cutting of cake to celebrate it

This haunting pic of @NidhiChaphekar sitting dazed in bright yellow yet composed, became a face of the strong character of Jet Airways crew and the Brussels airport bombing in 2016

Last: S2-3502 from Ahmedabad to BOM was the last time Jet Airways operated a commercial flight
Ironically it was with a Jetlite aircraft
In 2007, Goyal acquired Air Sahara from Subrata Roy for $340 million and turned it into Jetlite
One of the primary reason of the downfall
