Domestic carrier SpiceJet on Monday said it plans to induct three Airbus A320 planes on a damp lease next month to further expand its fleet.

The company has already finalised a lease agreement (with the lessor) for these three narrowbody planes, the airline said in a statement.

Along with this, SpiceJet said it has also ungrounded a Boeing 737 MAX aircraft and put it back into commercial operations.

The additional capacity will support the airline's network requirements during the busy travel season and provide greater operational flexibility across its domestic and international routes, it said.

"These aircraft will help us meet growing passenger demand, strengthen operational resilience and enhance network flexibility during a busy travel period," said Debojo Maharshi, Chief Business Officer, SpiceJet.

The airline, he said, continues to focus on steadily expanding its fleet and improving operational readiness as we move forward with our growth plans.
