''With Brussels as the hub, flights would be synchronised to provide passengers seamless transfer access between Delhi and Newark and Mumbai and Toronto,'' he said.

Progressively, the airlines would link cities like Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Chennai and Hyderabad with New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Vancouver.

Jet Airways also plans to upgrade the Boeing 737s to wide-body on sectors like Mumbai-Singapore, Chennai-Singapore and Chennai-Kuala Lumpur.

Of the 10 Boeing 737-300 ERs that had been ordered, two were already delivered and were flying on the twice-daily services on the Mumbai-London route.

Earlier, Mr Shetty unveiled the airlines' new first class suite and premier class on its Boeing 777-300 ERs offering flat beds, internet connectivity and in-house entertainment.
