We have been flying to and from all 138 operational destinations across our network while maintaining the IndiGo standards of on-time performance. With this, we are pleased to confirm that we are fully prepared to cater to the surge in demand during this holiday season.”
“Looking ahead, we are all set to welcome our and India’s first Airbus A321XLR, which will redefine medium-to-long haul flying for travellers in India and the subcontinent.
