CURRENT SCENARIO

Some of the recent decisions taken by IA are as follows:


1) International Presence: operates daily flights to Dubai, Singapore and
Katmandu. However, the airlines operate about 15% of its capacity
internationally. By launching more international flights in European
cities, it strives to boost its net profit margin. Airlines plans on adding
international routes to Istanbul, London and other major cities.
2) Switch from A320 to A321neo
● Achieve Fuel Efficiency: By switching from A320 to A321neo, airline can
operate long haul flights. Moreover, A321neo are more fuel efficient,
thus helping to reduce the fuel consumption by 15% per aircraft.
● Achieve Higher seating capacity: A321neo is broader than A320. The
seating capacity of A321neo is 244 seats in comparison to A320 which
had a seat capacity of 165. This increase in seating capacity would make
this aircraft perfect for routes that have a lot of traffic and demand.
● Decrease in operating costs: By operating more long-haul flights,
expects its operating costs to go down by 8%. This can be attributed to
the decrease in fuel expenses, lower airport take-off and landing fees
due to operation of fewer flights with higher seating capacity etc.
