NEW DELHI : Vistara will add a dozen planes next year to supplement a fleet of 42 by March-end, with which it aims to create a unique “hub-and-spoke” arrangement linking its domestic and international operations, chief executive Leslie Thng said.
The fleet expansion will see the induction of Boeing 787-9 (Dreamliner), and Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft into the airline’s fleet, which will be utilized across its domestic and international operations.
In aviation terminology, a hub refers to a central airport that flights are routed through, and spokes are the routes that planes take out of the hub airport.
