Air India Express Inducts 100th Aircraft, Doubles Fleet in Two Years
Air India Express has achieved a significant milestone with the induction of its 100th aircraft, a Boeing 737-8, featuring ‘Chittara’ tail art inspired by Karnataka’s traditional mural painting.
The airline has doubled its fleet in just two years, expanding its network to 54 destinations across India, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. By the end of this month, Air India Express will operate over 500 daily flights.
Aloke Singh, Managing Director, Air India Express, said, “The induction of our 100th aircraft marks a defining moment in our growth and transformation journey. We have scaled up rapidly with a modern and fuel-efficient fleet, broadened our domestic network, and deepened our Middle East and Southeast Asia routes.”
Since joining the Tata group in January 2022, Air India Express has undergone significant growth and transformation, adding new destinations and redefining the travel experience with differentiated offerings.
The airline’s fleet expansion is part of its ambitious growth plans, focusing on tier 2 and tier 3 cities, emerging hotspots of the Indian economy.
