Air India on course to achieve Vihaan.AI goals

WHILE SPICEJET WAS constrained on capacity, the grounding and subsequent exit of embattled carrier Go First, saw their market share get redistributed to IndiGo, Air India and Akasa Air.

The merger of AirAsia India and Air India Express and the merger between Vistara and Air India resulted in the creation of the Air India group, which presently has a fleet of nearly 300 aircraft.

A total of 570 aircraft have been ordered by the airline since the start of Vihaan.AI, including 80 widebody planes from Boeing and Airbus. This has helped the airline induct one aircraft every six days.

"Air India has added close to 2,500 weekly flights to its route network (includes domestic and international flights), growing the number of weekly flights by over 95% since September 2022," said an Air India spokesperson.
