GURGAON, March 20, 2017: SpiceJet, the country’s favourite low-cost
carrier, yet again embarked on its journey of #GivingWingsToDreams by offering the
special treat to around 50 underprivileged children in association with the Rotary Club
of Chandigarh. The airline operated a special flight on 20 March, 2017 from Chandigarh
for a set of kids who have never flown before thereby giving them a lifetime
opportunity.
The special initiative programmed a one hour flight for kids aged between 12 – 14 years
who were very excited to fly for the very first time. The children were completely
attended to and taken care of by the airline crew who engaged with them providing them
with more information on the voyage experience and the place, thereby making the tour
even more eventful. The children were provided healthy snacks like sandwiches and
juices while on-board
Debojo Maharshi, Chief Marketing Officer, SpiceJet, said, “SpiceJet is
all about rising up from your daily mundane life, adding a bit of spice and
experiencing something new. And when this objective fused with our vision of making
every Indian fly, it catapulted into this special initiative called #GivingWingstoDreams.
Dedicated to the future of our country this is our bit towards adding zest and offering
a ‘wow’ experience to the lives of those special kids who have been deprived of the
beautiful things life has to offer. We would like to thank the Rotary Club of
Chandigarh for making this possible for us this time.”
The children invited for the initiative belonged to states like Punjab, Haryana,
Himachal Pradesh, Uttrakhand, Uttar Pradesh and the union territory of Chandigarh.
#GivingWingstoDreams is a special initiative by SpiceJet under which
the airline organizes these special treats for underprivileged children and for
children with special needs, with such regular activities throughout the year. This
year and last year too, SpiceJet has conducted similar flights for underprivileged
children from Delhi to Goa on the occasion of Holi. Past initiatives also included
similar flights for children from Calcutta orphanages for a day trip to Delhi and for a
group of autistic children from Chennai, who were taken for a day-trip to Madurai.
