Recently, IndiGo’s widebody operations have faced external operational constraints; continuously changing airspace constraints due to geo-political circumstances, congestion at airports both in India and abroad. These factors significantly increased flight and block times causing strain over the airline’s 787-9 schedule that is operated with 6 widebody aircraft.

After a review of all the above factors, the airline will introduce the following changes to its widebody network:

– Starting 17 February 2026, IndiGo will suspend its operations to and from Copenhagen till further notice.
– Effective 07 February 2026, IndiGo has reduced its Delhi – Manchester services from 5 flights per week to 4 flights per week, and will further reduce to 3 flights per week from 19 February 2026; thus reducing its total connectivity to/from Manchester from 9
weekly to 7 weekly services. This scale adjustment was originally planned to be introduced in the Summer Schedule 2026; however, it is being executed earlier to ensure reliability to the rest of IndiGo’s long-haul operations.
– With effect from 09 February 2026, IndiGo’s Delhi – London Heathrow services will be adjusted from 5x weekly to 4x weekly flights, for the current winter schedule.
