PUNE: IndiGo said that it was further defining its long-term future, well into the next decade, by placing a firm order for 500 Airbus A320 Family aircraft.
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.
As on date, the airline 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.
