AIRLINES TO OPERATE MORE FLIGHTS THIS WINTER

The Indian skies are set to get busier this winter as airlines prepare to significantly boost flight departures, capitalizing on increased aircraft deliveries and a positive demand outlook for the peak travel season. Increased aircraft deliveries, un-grounding of aircraft, opening of new routes and a better demand outlook have prompted operators to fly more during the winter, traditionally the peak season for air travel, as holidays and the wedding season coincide. The two listed airlies,

and SPICEJET will be adding flights during the upcoming five-month winter schedule, beginning 26 October 2025 and ending 28 March 2026. SPICEJET is expected to see over 20% increase over the preceding 12-month period, apart from India's largest airline which is expected to see 10% increase. These airlines are expected to see a good revenue growth in the coming quarters.
