Air India is all set to induct the first Airbus 320 neo aircraft which will be delivered on February 16, making it the third domestic carrier to have this latest single-aisle plane from Airbus.
"Air India ordered total seven Airbus 320 neo aircraft to increase more strength in its fleet. Airbus 320 neo aircraft is very passenger friendly aircraft. It is not only fuel efficient but it has more seats capacity compared to Airbus 320. We will deploy it on Delhi to Chennai route by March," said an Air India spokesperson.
According to the data, Air India has total 24 Airbus 320 aircraft in its fleet.
Airbus 320 aircraft is very old and now it is time to replace most of 320 aircraft from Air India fleets.
At present, two domestic carriers, IndiGo and GoAir operate the fuel-efficient Airbus 320 neo planes in their fleet.
