As per Akasa Air official website<\/a>, it was started with the belief that, \u201cthe Sky embraces everyone, and so air travel should be inclusive and affordable for all.\u201d Akasa Air is committed to making air travel affordable to one and all, all while being committed to the cause of environmental sustainability with their \u201cnewest and greenest\u201d fleet of air carriers that will soon ascend the Indian skies.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the recent launch of its Crew Member\u2019s uniform, Akasa Air has already gained enough attention and created great hype. The uniform includes custom jackets and trousers with sneakers, which is a fresh change from the usual uniform of all the other airlines. These environment friendly uniforms were created using recycled polyester fabric made from plastic bottles recovered from marine waste and the shoes were made by using recycled rubber with no plastic being used at all throughout the entire manufacturing process. Basically, the uniforms are environmentally conscious and comfortable, that\u2019s so cool! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
