IndiGo looking for new formula to induct wide-body aircraft: CEO

IndiGo is looking for a new formula that will allow it to induct wide-body aircraft, Ronojoy Dutta, the airline’s Chief Executive Officer, said at the company’s 16thAnnual General Meeting here on Tuesday.

“We are investigating it thoroughly. We meet every Tuesday to talk about the wide-body. It is not an easy proposition. You do need a business class to make the wide-body work. We cannot copy anyone because no one has succeeded in terms of wide-body low cost. We have to do something different,” Dutta said. At the moment, IndiGo does not have wide-body aircraft and offers only economy class seating on all its aircraft.
