As the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) declared in the summary of January 2024, not much changed in terms of standing in Indian aviation. Yet the details were significant on more than one count. Air India, a Tata company, carried 15.97 lakh domestic passengers making it the best-ever month in the history of the airline.
The airline first crossed the 10 lakh domestic passengers per month mark in October 2014. In the same month, IndiGo carried 18.9 lakh domestic passengers. IndiGo ferried 79.09 lakh domestic passengers in January 2024, while Air India went on to its highest-ever number of 15.97 lakh. Air India has been stuck in decision paralysis for a long time.
