IndiGo orders 30 more Airbus A350-900 aircraft

IndiGo has announced that it will be placing a firm order for another 30 wide-body Airbus A350-900 aircraft, taking its total order size to 60 of these long-range jets to fuel its international ambitions. In April last year, IndiGo announced a firm order for 30 A350-900 aircraft, along with purchase options for another 70 planes of the A350 family. On 1st June, the airline and Airbus inked an agreement to convert 30 of those options into firm orders. IndiGo expects the delivery of the initially ordered A350 aircraft to start in 2027 and go on for a few years. The next 30 will start coming in after that, taking the deliveries well into the next decade. IndiGo has expanded its international network by adding destinations in regions including Central Asia and the Caucasus, Southeast Asia and Africa using its narrow-body fleet, as per a report.
