UK-based startup Hans Airways moves to operate at secondary airports in India from the UK later this fall.

The company has already announced that it has entered into an agreement with a recruitment company to help hire staff to operate its Airbus A330s. The test flight has already been scheduled for October this year.

The new crew members will contribute so that the company's flight earns them their AOC (Air Operator Certificate – Air Operator Certificate).

The Hiring Company even worked with other UK companies as well, such as British Airways, Virgin Atlantic and EasyJet.

“This recruitment contract is a timely development as we prepare to launch our nonstop nonstop flights to India at the end of 2021,” said Nathan Burkitt, Director of Flight Operations and Crew Training at Hans Airways.

The airline's Airbus A330-200s will accommodate 281 people in a two-class configuration. Low-cost will not offer business class, but will have 73 seats in premium economy class in a 2-3-2 configuration, with the remaining 208 in regular economy class in a 2-4-2 configuration.
