NEW DELHI: As Tata Group prepares to revive its 1932-founded Air India with a record-breaking aircraft order, soon-to-be-17 IndiGo is operating its highest number of daily flights — 1,800 — with a fleet of 308 aircraft. It is also preparing for a network expansion from 102 destinations at the moment to over 115 by next April. A majority of this growth will be international and the low-cost carrier expects to fly almost 10 crore passengers in FY24 — 2 crore more than this financial year.
Due to its last 300-aircraft order placed in 2019, the domestic market leader says it is well placed to cash-in-on the resounding resurgence in travel being witnessed since last November, with a steady supply of planes and is in no hurry to place its next order.
