Talking to reporters after presentation of the airlines' first acquired Boeing 777-300 ER and Airbus 330-200 aircraft, Mr Goyal said this training to young Indians will help in reducing the dearth of good pilots. He said the expertise of Australians and Swiss will also be used in this sector as the accident rate in Australia is zero per cent.
He said in next five years he expects to get 50 per cent of the domestic and international market from India.
When asked whether Jet airways would join any of the aviation alliances, Mr Goyal said at present he would concentrate more on bilateral relations and improving the Jet standards in place of joining any alliance.
