Quikjet Airlines (QO, Bengaluru International) has signed a joint-venture agreement with Indian logistics firm Sovika wherein the carrier's B737-400(F) will be used on flights between Delhi International (where it will be based), Chennai, Hyderabad International, and Bengaluru International. In the second phase, it will connect Mumbai International and Kolkata as the airline seeks to cover all major metro hubs.

The service will operate at night and will target the eCommerce, express cargo, and motor industry sectors which demand next-day delivery.

As previously reported, Quikjet only recently secured its Scheduled Air Operators Permit from the Indian Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).
