IndiGo enters Brand Finance Top 50 Airlines list recognising the most valuable and strongest airline brands in 2020 - IndiGo is the only airline to make it to the list from India 

National, April 09, 2020: India’s leading carrier – IndiGo – has been recognised as one of the most valuable and strongest airlines as per the Brand Finance Airlines 50 report for 2020. The airline was ranked at number 43 in the report as it entered the list for the first time. IndiGo, the only airline from India, ranked above the other two new entrants in the list – Shanghai Airlines from China and Vueling from Spain. 

Mr. William Boulter, Chief Commercial Officer, IndiGo said, “Amidst the unprecedented times that we all are going through, this news brings a cheer and is a testament to the hard work that has gone behind scaling up our network and operations over the last one year. At IndiGo, we have not only invested our time, but our hearts to make it the brand that it is today.”. 

Mr. Boulter further added, “We are all the more motivated to keep true to our promise of affordable fares, on-time performance, courteous and hassle-free service across an unparalleled network.” 

Savio D'Souza, Valuations Director, Brand Finance said, “IndiGo has seen its value soar by 33% to enter into the top 50 airline brands in 2020. This is testament to its clear and well executed strategy. Given its strong brand rating of AAA-, the brand is better positioned than its domestic peers to recover in the post COVID-19 era." 

Brand Valuation Methodology Brand Finance calculates the values of the brands in its league tables using the Royalty Relief approach – a brand valuation method compliant with the industry standards set in ISO 10668. This involves estimating the likely future revenues that are attributable to a brand by calculating a royalty rate that would be charged for its use, to arrive at a ‘brand value’ understood as a net economic benefit that a licensor would achieve by licensing the brand in the open market.

Vistara Domestic Premium Economy vs. Economy – Is The Upgrade Worth It?

Economy on Vistara As one of only two  full-service carriers  in India, Vistara offers a high-quality economy product. On its A320, which used on most domestic routes, it offers 18-inch wide seats with a pitch of 29-30 inches. While this does sound standard, the well-padded seats and adjustable headrest make for a much more comfortable offering than its low-cost competitors. The seats also offer an acceptable 3″ recline. In terms of service, Vistara is one of the few airlines offering hot meals on domestic routes (minus short routes under an hour). All economy passengers, except those booked on Economy Lite fares, receive a meal along with hot or cold beverages. From personal experience, the meals are good and enough for domestic hops. For those traveling on Lite fares, only complimentary hot beverages are available. Vistara also has a small buy-on-board menu, which features packaged snacks and drinks, along with some hot instant meals. Originally, the airline served all passenger’s me

Why the Airbus A340 Has A Middle Landing Gear

Image
The  Airbus A340  was specially designed for long haul flying and had something not seen with other widebody aircraft flying today. It was a unique middle landing gear that allowed the plane to take off with heavier loads and carry more fuel for its four hungry engines. What is the middle landing gear? If you have ever looked carefully at a picture of an A340 (or if you are lucky, in real life), you might have noticed an extra landing gear on the belly in the middle of the plane. Here it is on a Virgin Atlantic  Airbus A340-600  to the rear of the aircraft. Looking at the bottom of an A340 you’ll see that there are already two other sets of landing gears under the wings, why would an aircraft need a third in the middle? Why some A340s have the middle landing gear Plain and simple, the extra landing gear allows the A340 aircraft to have a higher MTOW (maximum take-off weight). This means more passengers and cargo, plus more fuel to go a longer distance. Perfect for t

Preparing To Start Domestic Flight Operations Within A Week: Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Puri

The domestic flight operations are likely to resume within a week, says Union Civil Aviation Minister  Hardeep Singh Puri . The commercial flight operations remain suspended since March 24 after the announcement of nationwide lockdown to contain the spread of coronavirus. In an interview with  Outlook ’s  Preetha Nair , the Union Minister also talks about the government’s massive plan to evacuate stranded Indians and the logistical challenges involved. He also says a decision on operating flights between green zones of the country will soon be taken. You have hinted that the commercial flight operations are set to begin after May 15 in a calibrated way. Can you elaborate? We are preparing to start domestic flight operations even before May 15. My effort will be to try and move in the direction of starting it very soon. I can’t put a date on it because when you are planning evacuation operations, you need the co-operation of the state governments. In order to open up domestic civil avia
