IndiGo Plans International Expansion as It Marks 20 Years of Operations
IndiGo, India's largest airline with over 66% domestic market share, marks 20 years by planning significant international expansion. The airline aims to connect the global Indian diaspora, recapture traffic from Gulf hubs, and eventually facilitate travel between foreign countries via India. It will induct Airbus A321 XLR aircraft and later wide-body A350s from 2028. While expanding overseas, IndiGo remains focused on its domestic network and operational efficiency, acknowledging it is not yet a global carrier. Geopolitical tensions have affected some international operations.
