SEOUL: SpiceJet plans to hire up to 2,000 staff, including pilots and cabin crew, of the defunct Jet Airways as the no-frills carrier continues to expand its operations. "We have taken significant number of people from Jet Airways. We will continue to take more Jet staff in the times to come. It is the fourth airline after Air India, now defunct Jet Airways and IndiGo to have 100 aircraft. To a query on whether SpiceJet would look at operating wide-body aircraft that were earlier used by Jet Airways, Singh said the airline is right now focussed on narrow-body fleet.
