Private carrier Novoair completes five years of operations today with a pledge to offer better services by adding more aircraft and destinations.

"Novoair has always given priority to its customers' safety and security, comfort and on-time departure," said Mofizur Rahman, managing director of the airline that spread wings on January 9 in 2013 with flights on Dhaka-Chittagong route.

By ensuring top-class and on-time services, Novoair has earned trust and satisfaction of its passengers and become the airline of choice in Bangladesh, Rahman said in a statement yesterday. He said the company's commitment in the sixth year will be to ensure safe passenger services by adding more aircraft to its fleet and expand domestic and international destinations.

Novoair has so far operated more than 33,000 flights and served around 15 lakh customers on domestic and international routes with a remarkable 97.57 percent on-time performance, the airline said.

Currently, Novoair operates daily flights from Dhaka to Chittagong, Cox's Bazar, Jessore, Sylhet, Saidpur and Kolkata, with its four ATR 72-500 aircraft.

The company said new aircraft will join its fleet soon.
