I was just about to post the same thing, so I looked it up. United Breweries Group, whose main brand is Kingfisher Beer, does indeed own Kingfisher Airlines, which they launched just two years ago. UB is the largest brewery in India and the second largest in the world behind Anheuser Busch. They seem to be building quite a brand, with one in three beers sold in India being Kingfishers, and Kingfisher Airlines being the first in India to offer IFE. The Kingfisher being a type of bird certainly lends itself to a name for an airline...not sure Budweiser Air would be so successful. :shock:Originally Posted by Greg_NY
