Mumbai: As part of its expanding international operations, Jet Airways, is now all set to launch its Dubai service from 23 August. Jet, India's largest private carrier, said it will launch one daily, direct flight each from Delhi and Mumbai.

Company officials said an Airbus 330-200 would be deployed on the proposed route.
