This approval becomes a vote of confidence in the project and in our investors to develop a new ultra low-cost product that stimulates the airline market,&#8221; said Ultra Air&#8217;s founder and CEO, William Shaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new airline estimates that in the first five years of operation it will add 40 aircraft to its fleet and generate approximately 36,000 direct, indirect and induced jobs. It is also expected that with its entry into the market, air fares will decrease by up to 20% and there will be a 5% increase in revenues for travel agencies and the hotel industry in the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top uagb-post__image-enabled
