Air India Elevates Domestic Travel with New Premium Economy Cabins

Buckle up for a more comfortable journey! Air India, India’s national carrier, has introduced premium economy cabins on select domestic routes, offering travellers a new class of comfort. This addition to its A320 fleet is set to elevate the flying experience on key routes, effective from July 1, 2024.

New Premium Economy Service Starts July 2024

Starting July 1, 2024, passengers flying between Delhi and Bengaluru or Delhi and Chandigarh on specific Air India flights will have the option to experience the airline’s brand-new premium economy class. This exciting addition signifies Air India’s commitment to providing passengers with greater comfort and choice.

Designed for Discerning Travellers

The new premium economy cabins are part of a three-class configuration being rolled out across Air India’s narrowbody fleet (A320 aircraft) used for domestic and short-haul international flights. This configuration offers passengers the flexibility to choose from:

• 8 luxurious Business Class seats for ultimate comfort and exclusivity.
• 24 spacious Premium Economy seats with ample legroom for a more relaxing travel experience.
• 132 comfortable Economy Class seats for a budget-friendly option.

Elevated In-Flight Experience

Passengers flying in the premium economy can expect more than just extra legroom. Air India has designed these cabins to enhance the overall travel experience. Here’s what you can look forward to:

• Subtle cabin mood lighting creates a serene ambience.
• Portable Electronic Device (PED) holders for convenient use of tablets and smartphones.
• USB ports to keep your devices charged throughout the flight.

Enhancing the Travel Experience

This upgrade is part of Air India’s strategic efforts under the Tata Group to provide a superior flying experience. By integrating premium economy cabins, Air India aims to cater to travellers seeking more comfort and convenience without opting for business class.

A Look Ahead

As Air India continues to modernize its fleet and service offerings, passengers can look forward to an elevated travel experience across more routes in the coming years.

The introduction of premium economy is just the beginning of a series of enhancements aimed at making Air India a preferred choice for domestic travel.
