The new aircraft offers 11 first-class and 64 business-class seats," M. Thiagarajan, Managing Director, Paramount Airways, told The Hindu on Tuesday.

The new services would include an early morning Chennai-Kochi flight and two flights between Chennai and Coimbatore — one will depart at 10.50 a.m. and the other at midday. The timings of the evening connection to Coimbatore would be altered to suit the convenience of passengers.
