Air India Express will operate more than 360 daily flights during the summer schedule, with international services set to rise by over 20 per cent.
The airline is in the process of completing the merger with AIX Connect (earlier known as AirAsia India) and the schedule includes flights of both carriers.
In a release on Monday, Tata Group-owned Air India Express said it will offer over 360 daily departures during the summer schedule.
Compared to last year’s summer schedule, there will be an increase of over 25 per cent in domestic flights and more than 20 per cent rise in overseas services.
“This translates to an additional 55 domestic flights and 19 international flights, bringing the total to 259 domestic and 109 international departures,” the release said.
Generally, the summer schedule is from the last Sunday of March till the last Saturday of October. In 2024, the summer schedule will be from March 31 till October 26.
Among others, the airline will be increasing its frequencies to destinations such as Abu Dhabi, Dammam, Jeddah, and Sharjah.
Currently, Air India Express operates over 360 daily flights with a fleet of 67 aircraft — 39 Boeing 737s and 28 Airbus A320s.
