Ideology..
Focus Small Going Slow
![Page 8: Brand management practices at Trujet Airlines](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070516/587332961a28ab596c8b6eb7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Plan is to focus on smaller aircrafts and smaller routes
Focus on busy routes between tier II cities
Set Break Even bench mark at 12-24 months from first flight
Trujet plans to offer transport services to and from the airports on these routes

Wise Play’s & Mind Games Trujet purchased 3 of the six three months old 72
seater ATR-72 planes from Malaysian airlines Trujet will benefit fom the lower fuel prices and
tax sops offered to the sector (At mere 1% ) With less than 80 seats there is only 4% sale and
fuel tax comparing with 28% of large aircrafts Since aircrafts weighs less than 40 tonnes Trujet
enjoys landing & navigation free waviers

Fares and Feed back.. Govt is keen to promote low cost
airlines so it is Likely that tax rates will continue to be favourable in near term
In addition to the low fare charges Trujet gives discounts to students and senior citizens allowing the airlines to build strong customer base
