IndiGo Hikes Pilot Allowances Amidst Operational Challenges and Flight Disruptions

IndiGo is increasing pilot allowances and introducing new benefits effective January 1, following recent mass flight cancellations attributed to rostering issues and new duty time limitations. The revised allowances, which include hikes for domestic layovers, deadhead travel, and night operations, aim to boost pilot morale. A new tail-swap allowance is also being introduced. These changes come amidst regulatory scrutiny and competition probes for the airline, which holds a significant domestic market share.
