Vistara, an Indian full service carrier, recently received its 21st aircraft, an Airbus A320neo powered by CFM engines. With this addition to its fleet, Vistara becomes eligible to start international operations. The new aircraft will be deployed to further strengthen the airline’s domestic network.
Leslie Thng, CEO, Vistara, said, “There’s great excitement amongst all of us at Vistara, as we prepare ourselves for taking the next leap in our journey to fly international. The arrival of our 21st aircraft makes this phase even more special. It enables us to strengthen our network further, which gives us the opportunity to offer more choices in terms of frequencies to our ever-growing base of loyal customers.”
Vistara’s A320neo aircraft comes in its cabin configuration of 158 seats (eight Business Class, 24 Premium Economy and 126 Economy Class) as well as other industry-first features, for which the airline calls it #NotJustAnotherNeo. Vistara has flown over nine million customers, and today serves 22 destinations with over 800 flights a week.
