The airline initially operated a single class service but subsequently introduced a highly acclaimed First Class, allowing it to compete with Jet Airways for the high yield corporate market. In addition to its A320 family aircraft used on domestic routes, Kingfisher Airlines also operates ATR-72 turboprops on regional sectors.

?Under current Indian regulations, which require airlines to operate 5 years domestic service before being granted international rights, Kingfisher will not be permitted to operate overseas until 2010. However, the airline has very clear international ambitions, with an order book for 45 widebody aircraft, including A330s, A340s, A350s and A380s. The first of these aircraft are due for delivery from February 2008, so the airline is that the 5-year qualification threshold will be reviewed prior to that date. Kingfisher has stated that it will have a "US-focused" international network with an emphasis on non-stop services.??In just over two years, Kingfisher Airlines has achieved a market share of 10 shareholding in India's largest LCC, Air Deccan, for approximately USD130 million, and an open offer for a further 20 and a product range spanning from the price-sensitive, first-time flyer, to the high yield business traveler, making it one of the key pillars of the airline industry.
