IndiGo orders 500 Airbus A320 aircraft; largest order in aviation history
IndiGo said on Monday that it has placed an order for 500 Airbus A320 Family aircraft on the first day of the Paris Airshow.
“This will provide IndiGo a further steady stream of deliveries between 2030 and 2035. This 500 aircraft order is not only IndiGo’s largest order, but also the largest-ever single aircraft purchase by any airline with Airbus. The engine selection for this order will be done in due course and so will be the exact mix of A320 and A321 aircraft,” the company said in a statement.
Today IndiGo operates over 300 aircraft and has previous orders totaling 480 aircraft which are yet to be delivered between today and the end of this decade.
