When the 21-year-old girl was cured of cancer, she went looking for a job. But those who came to know about the illness showed reluctance to hire as they could not work like other employees. Recruiters felt that the company might be a liability, so most opted out and made a decision on their own. It was in 2012.
No more going to ask anyone for a job. Become someone who can give work to others. Anyway, the decision to start her own business changed Kanika’s life. While in college, he worked for Aerospace Resources, a company that worked for organizations in the aviation and aerospace sectors. Also, the charter jet service business prospects while studying MBA in UK were amazing. Realizing the potential of charter aircraft services in India also led to such a business.
Jetsetgo was founded a year later. With not only hard work but also the support of investors and a great team, this company has revolutionized the private aviation business. The company that provides private jet services in the commercial sector not only rents out the entire private jet but also only a single seat in the jet. Started as an aircraft aggregator, JetsetGo now has offices in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Dubai and New York.
