With its low-fare, high-quality all-economy product, Jet Airways Konnect has been a resounding success with all our guests. However, as domestic air travel continues to rise, and governmental and corporate travel restrictions are relaxed, there has been increasing customer demand for a superior in-flight product with more benefits and privileges than, our current all-economy Jet Airways Konnect product”.

Konnect Select Customer Reviews
"I am a regular customer of Jet Airways business class and I always wondered how business class could be cheaper. When Jet Airways started Jet Airways Konnect service, I got disappointed as this was something which people of my taste and class would have liked. Today, when my EA informed me that he got me a business class (Konnect Select service from Jet Airways Konnect) at less than half the cost of the regular Jet Airways Business Class, I did not trust him till the time I got the ticket in my hand and I actually boarded / used the Konnect Select service of Jet Airways Konnect. Thank you very much Jet Airways for all this." - Mr. RM Nair, Mumbai.
"I did not believe this. But today, when I boarded Jet Airways Konnect from Delhi to Mumbai Flight, I came to know what Konnect Select is. It is a pity that there are only limited seats for Konnect Select service and it is strongly recommneded and urged that Jet Airways should increase the seats in each Jet Konnect aircraft to 25 seats from the current 8 seats. This is just amazing. I just wish as to why other airlines are just not doing it. People do travel Low Cost Airlines but they also prefer to be upgraded. There are seats upgrades in other airlines like Go Air (Go Business) but Konnect Select is something I liked much better than others" - Kuldeep Singh.
