:pushpin: Why should this airline be added?
Kingfisher Airlines was a full-service carrier that operated from the early 2000s up until 2012. The airline had hubs in the major cities of Mumbai, Bangalore, and Delhi in India, where it competed against Air India. The airline was poised to receive the A380 as well as the A350 and the A340 however that never came into fruition. Sadly, the airline ceased all operations due to bankruptcy, wherein aircraft were either returned to their lessors, grounded, or never delivered, as was the case with their A340s. It would be super cool to see this in-game at least as an event livery.

Would be a cool airline to see with CNN in the game and with the upcoming HKG which it flew too. Beer is decent too :laughing:. Sadly I doubt we’d ever see the A350s in-game as they ordered the -800 variant but potentially if the devs were willing to be a bit more open to aircraft ordered but not delivered to an airline, could see the A380 especially as its a popular aircraft among the community (Just need to look at how many Emirates specials there are…).
