Go First says bookings will resume 'shortly'
In its tweet, Go First also said it has filed an application for immediate resolution and revival of operations and that it would be able to resume bookings shortly. Notably, the cash-strapped airline's statement comes two days after the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) asked it to submit a comprehensive plan for the revival of its operations within a month, reported PTI.

On May 2, Go First announced it will not fly on May 3-4 after it filed for bankruptcy. Since then, lessors have sought to take back their aircraft leased to the carrier. On Monday, the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) upheld the National Company Law Tribunal's (NCLT's) decision to admit Go First's petition for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings.
