IndiGo announces 32 new connecting flights to Europe

IndiGo has announced 32 new connecting flights to Europe through its codeshare partnership with Turkish Airlines.

Effective December 07, the new routes include several major destinations including Milan, Manchester, Birmingham, Rome, and Venice.

Codesharing allows an airline to book its passengers on its partner carriers and provide seamless travel to destinations where it has no presence.

The airline said that the new flights are designed to cater to travellers who are constantly on the lookout for new and affordable flying options to access destinations which help in building businesses and are known for their tourist attractions.

The introduction of these flights will further bolster the international connectivity, it added.

Last month, IndiGo had launched flight services to Portugal and Switzerland via Istanbul under its codeshare partnership with Turkish Airlines.

Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales, IndiGo said, “We are extremely pleased to add more capacity between India and Europe during this holiday season, given the high demand for international travel. These flights will cater to travellers exploring Italy and UK, with one stop connections to Milan, Manchester, Birmingham, Rome, and Venice via Istanbul. These new routes will not only strengthen international connectivity but also enhance affordability for travel to Europe. We will continue to strive to stay true to our promise of affordable fares, on-time performance, courteous and hassle-free service.”

In August this year, IndiGo had inked a codeshare agreement with British carrier Virgin Atlantic.
