Running At Full Capacity By Dec 2021

Last week the airline said that it is aiming at running at full capacity domestically and is targeting just over two-thirds in international routes as the virus pandemic eases and people start traveling more.

“Things are improving slowly,” Chief Executive Officer Ronojoy Dutta told while speaking to Bloomberg Television adding that it was “hard not to be bullish as traffic is going up.”

He said the current load factor for the airline is around 70% and yields are likely to rise incoming.

The new non-stop connections will augment the commercial opportunities not only in Bareilly, but the city also becomes a gateway for nearby destinations like Nainital, Ranikhet, Rudrapur, and other tourist and business areas.

Bareilly will now be connected to other destinations on IndiGo’s network through nonstop services to Bengaluru and Mumbai.
