New Delhi: Rising domestic passenger traffic along with healthy response to its new intra-regional flights has boosted airline major IndiGo’s outlook for 2022.
Nevertheless, the airline remains ‘cautiously optimistic’ on the impact the Omicron Covid-19 variant might have on the country’s aviation sector.
In conversation with IANS, Sanjay Kumar, Chief Strategy and Revenue Officer, IndiGo revealed that the airline has almost reached 100 per cent pre-Covid capacity utilisation level.
“The year 2020 and 2021 have indeed been very challenging for not just the aviation and travel industry but the global economy, and it is the economy which drives demand for our business,” Kumar said.
“The domestic traffic has been good and has grown very strongly in recent months as restrictions and the pandemic eased. Things are improving gradually, and we are almost back to domestic pre-Covid capacity as well, though international travel may take a little longer.”
On intra-regional connectivity, Kumar said that the airline is focusing on connecting India’s large, mid-size and small cities.
