Cash-strapped Indian airline, Go First on Thursday announced extending the cancellation of its scheduled flights till July 16.

In a statement, the airlines said, “We acknowledge the flight cancellations might have disrupted your travel plans and we are committed to providing all the assistance we can," the airline added.

“As you are aware, the company has filed an application for immediate resolution and revival of operations. We will be able to resume bookings shortly. We thank you for your patience."

The announcement comes days after the company said that the flights were cancelled till July 10.

On July 12, the Delhi High Court gave the struggling Go First airline permission to maintain the leased aircraft while enabling the lessors to conduct routine inspections of the aircraft.

Cash-strapped budget carrier Go First filed a petition for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings on May 2, citing its inability to carry out operations due to non-delivery of engines by the US engine maker Pratt & Whitney. The plea of the airline, which has not flown since May 3, was admitted by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on May 10.
