Jet Airways Introduces Flight of Fantasy for Underprivileged Children in India
New York - November, 2009: Jet Airways, India’s leading airline, celebrated Children’s Day this weekend with an hour-long “Flight of Fantasy” for nearly 100 underprivileged and special-needs children from organizations such as Magic Bus, ASEEMA and Development Education Empowerment of the Disadvantaged in Society (DEEDs) and Muktangan.
In celebration of this important Indian holiday honoring the country’s children–which also commemorates the birthday of independent India’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru–scores of children were given the opportunity to board and “test-run” the amenities of a Jet Airways jet.
