IndiGo Airlines will add 20-25 more A321 Neos in the summer to cater to the heavily congested routes in the domestic sector and new international destinations.
Currently, IndiGo has only one A321 Neo, which is being used on the Delhi-Istanbul route; however, the airline has ordered a total of 125 A321 Neos with Airbus.
William Boulter, Chief Operating Officer, IndiGo Airlines, said the airline will use the new aircraft on domestic routes like Delhi and Mumbai along with international routes like Delhi-Istanbul and to China in future.
Delivery delays
Boulter was speaking to the media during the inaugural flight between Delhi and Istanbul on Wednesday. It was earlier reported that Airbus has been facing challenges to deliver aircraft due to delays from its engine supplier, Rolls Royce.
