IndiGo: Route Exchange Carrier

InterGlobe Aviation operates IndiGo, which started domestic commercial services in India in 2006. Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport is its main base.

FLEET

In June, Indigo added its 27th A320 - its preferred choice of aircraft with a seat capacity of 180 - into the fleet.

The carrier will also add three new A320s to the fleet next year, through a leasing arrangement with investor Hong Kong Aviation Capital (HKAC).

The carrier will also extend the lease of four A320s with HKAC that are already in service.
