Delhi-based low-cost airline IndiGo has finally confirmed that it will operate in Amsterdam and Manchester starting in July of this year. The flights are to be operated three times a week. The airline has not yet revealed the names of the cities from which these two destinations in India will be connected. Incidentally, Pieter Elbers, CEO of IndiGo, was the CEO of KLM before joining as IndiGo’s CEO. He was CEO of KLM from 2014 till he was appointed IndiGo’s CEO in 2022 (IndiGo Leadership Team – Know more of IndiGo Leaders | IndiGo)
The airline is also evaluating multiple other important markets across Europe to expand its long-haul footprint. With the arrival of additional aircraft from Norse later this year, the frequencies could further grow (to Amsterdam and Manchester).
