Setting the stage for competition with state owned Air India, SpiceJet is planning to add flights to mainland China as trade between India and the world’s second-biggest economy expands.

Kalanithi Maran owned carrier, which flies four times a week to Guangzhou in China, plans to fly to three more destinations there this year as it taps business and leisure travelers from both countries.

The discount carrier currently is accelerating its overseas push, while preparing to face competition from Asia’s biggest budget carrier AirAsia Bhd and Jet Airways (India).SpiceJet, India’s second-largest budget carrier by market share, currently operates more than 350 daily flights to over 50 Indian cities and 8 international destinations.
