IndiGo steps up foreign expansion plans with 6 new direct flights to Africa and Central Asia
India’s leading airline IndiGo said Friday it will start direct flights to six new destinations in Africa and Central Asia, further spreading its wings in the international skies as part of a “massive” overseas expansion plan.
IndiGo will connect Nairobi, Kenya and Jakarta, Indonesia, with direct flights from Mumbai in late July or early August, and Delhi will get connected in August to Tbilisi, Georgia & Baku, Azerbaijan, and in September to Tashkent, Uzbekistan, and Almaty, Kazakhstan, the company said in a release.
The airline, operated by InterGlobe Aviation, is therefore adding 174 new weekly international flights between June and September 2023, including new destinations, routes, and frequencies, catering to the rising demand for international travel from, to and via India.
