IndiGo, India’s leading airline, announced four new codeshare connections between India and the United States that will be effective from December 18, 2020. In collaboration with Turkish Airlines, the airline will offer flights to Houston IAH, Atlanta ATL, Miami MIA and Los Angeles LAX via Istanbul. IndiGo now has nine destinations in the US, a significant increase for both business and pleasure travellers.
These new connections are a part of IndiGo’s broader vision of enhancing its international connectivity, and providing customers with a wider range of destinations in the United States. IndiGo and Turkish Airlines’ partnership has now expanded to 43 destinations around the world.
Vinay Malhotra is the Head of Global Sales for IndiGo. He said:
“We are thrilled to offer additional US connections via Istanbul, bringing our total US connections up to nine. This expansion offers more options for tourists, students, and business travellers. We are committed to providing affordable, on-time and hassle-free travel.”
The budget airline has operated its first widebody-Boeing 777 aircraft since the beginning of February 2023. IndiGo said that these aircraft are being introduced to meet the increasing demand for international flights from India. Flight operations between Mumbai and Istanbul began on May 17.
The new routes will connect passengers with major US cities, such as Houston, which is known for its space exploration connections and vibrant food scene, Atlanta, an historical and cultural center, Miami, a cosmopolitan and Latin-inspired city, and Los Angeles, a city famous for its Hollywood charm, diverse attractions, and rich art. These new connections provide more options for travellers who want to connect to the US via India and elsewhere.
