IndiGo has announced it has taken delivery of its 13th Airbus A-320 Neo ‘VT – ITH’ aircraft to its growing fleet.
With this aircraft, the airline now has a fleet of 125 aircraft in its 125th month of operation. The expansion is in sync with IndiGo’s organic growth in route network and in response to the growing demand on its existing routes.
Effective January 1, 2017, the new schedule will see 10 additional frequencies connecting Hyderabad to Goa, Coimbatore, Bhubaneswar and Visakhapatnam.
Aditya Ghosh, President and Whole-Time Director, IndiGo, in a statement said: “The delivery of the 125th aircraft in the 125th month of our operation is indeed a landmark occasion for us. It reinforces our commitment towards the industry and living our promise of providing the best flying experience to our passengers.”
