The flights to Manchester (3x weekly) and Amsterdam (3x weekly) are expected to commence in July 2025, subject to regulatory approvals. These two European destinations will be the latest additions to IndiGo’s rapidly expanding global network, offering customers a seamless connectivity between India and Europe. Over the past two years, IndiGo has been already building its brand presence in Europe through multiple codeshare partnerships connecting several European cities to India.
Earlier this year, IndiGo entered into a damp lease agreement with Norse Atlantic Airways for a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, which was inducted into operations on March 1, 2025. Recently, the agreement was expanded to include the damp lease of 3 additional aircraft, scheduled to join the fleet towards the second half of this year.
Collectively, these aircraft will enable IndiGo to make an early entry into the long-haul market and establish itself in Europe while the airline awaits the delivery of its Airbus A321 XLR and A350-900 aircraft from 2027 onwards.
