Describing the promo as a tactical one, Mills said he is looking at garnering 20 per cent ticket sales through such promotions.
When sought his fuel outlook, he said it still is a big challenge and in a country like ours every airline has to live with this.
On the much-delayed ATF import, for which SpiceJet was the first to secure a licence last April, Mills said he has been waiting for the past six months or so to clear one last bureaucratic hurdle.
"As and when this one bureaucratic issue is resolved, I can start shipping in ATF from the very next day, as I have all the commercial arrangements, like vendors, shippers, storage facilities, etc already in place," Mills said.
However, Mills did not name any of the partners and the government department where the issue has got stalled.
SpiceJet currently operates over 330 daily flights to 42 domestic cities and seven international destinations -- Dubai, Colombo, Guangzhou, Kabul, Kathmandu, Male and Riyadh.
