Moving from one employer to another is easier said than done for Air Sahara's crew, who are all dressed up in Jet Airways' colours but do not know where to go.

With Jet's takeover of Air Sahara hitting a security roadblock, employees are confused about what would happen if the deal falls apart.

Employees of Air Sahara, especially the crew members, are all set to fly with Jet on the Amritsar-London sector after being trained by the new employer in Mumbai.

Even the new uniforms for Air Sahara's employees have been prepared and delivered to them.

Some of the employees said that Air Sahara crew members, who have been abosrbed in Jet, have been getting visas on behalf of Jet Airways, assuming the deal would be completed soon.

But the "environment is absolutely normal in offices... Jet Airways is fully in control of Air Sahara's offices and their (Jet's) policies are being implemented," they said.

Earlier on Tuesday, Jet Airways issued an official statement saying it was awaiting regulatory approveals to be in place.

Sahara officials, when contacted, declined to comment on the developments.
