IndiGo, the Delhi-based low-cost airline, confirmed it has agreed to lease one Boeing 787-9 aircraft from Norse Atlantic Airways. The airline said IndiGo and Norse will continue exploring opportunities to contract additional aircraft and increase collaboration. Social media said IndiGo could lease up to six Boeing 787 aircraft from Norse.
The airline said the agreement’s initial term is six months, extendable to 18 months. The aircraft will arrive in the next few weeks and is expected to start commercial operations in March this year. The lease could continue until IndiGo receives its ordered Airbus A 350-900 widebody aircraft.
