IndiGo doubles down on global ambitions with new London Heathrow flights, more Dreamliners, and a bold business-class debut.
IndiGo has announced that it will be commencing its direct daily flights to London Heathrow on October 26. The airline will be operating the route on a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, it said.
IndiGo said it will be receiving five additional Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft during the ongoing financial year under its damp-lease arrangement with Norse Atlantic Airways. This, it said, “will enable the airline to launch new international routes while strengthening its existing long-haul network.”
Speaking at the earnings call last week, CEO Pieter Elbers had said the airline would be launching London and Copenhagen in the coming months. The airline has not clarified from which Indian city it would be flying to London Heathrow. IndiGo already operates flights to Manchester from Mumbai.
