IndiGo becomes first airline to get longer range Airbus A321neo plane
IndiGo has become the first domestic airline to have longer range Airbus A321neo plane in its fleet with the first aircraft arriving Saturday morning in New Delhi from the Airbus' Hamburg facility in Germany, an airline source said. The new aircraft has joined the fleet after a delay of 1 month. It was to join the fleet Nov 29 as per the earlier schedule, he said. The induction of the first A321neo, of the 150 on order, will help IndiGo spread its wings to medium-haul international destinations. The longer range A321neo plane has been delivered to the airline at a time when it is struggling with the frequent glitches in the Pratt & Whitney engines, powering these planes, and taking these aircraft out of operations on a regular basis. <br/>
