IndiGo plans flights to London, Copenhagen, Athens, among 10 new international destinations this year

India’s biggest airline, IndiGo , is planning to add 10 new international destinations to its route network in the year to come, bringing it to over 50 international destinations. As IndiGo’s fleet of damp-leased Boeing 787s expands later this year, the airline is planning to expand its long-haul network to London and Copenhagen.

The Gurugram-based carrier has already announced the commencement of long-haul operations with non-stop, direct flights connecting Mumbai with Manchester and Amsterdam, starting July 2025, respectively.

With the extended range capabilities of the Airbus 321XLR aircraft joining the IndiGo fleet this year, the airline plans to further build its European network with direct connectivity to markets such as Athens over the course of the coming year.

The airline said it will continue to build on its strong regional international network, with four more Central Asian destinations. IndiGo said it will also resume services to Almaty and Tashkent with new non-stop services from Mumbai. Tbilisi will also see additional capacity with non-stop connectivity from Mumbai.

IndiGo will also enter Cambodia with direct flights to Siem Reap this year. The airline began flights to Langkawi, Penang and Krabi last year. The budget carrier will also add capacity to Denpasar Bali (Indonesia) as well as Ho Chi Mihn City and Hanoi in Vietnam.

In combination with organic growth through increased frequencies on existing routes, this expansion represents yet another step in IndiGo’s global expansion plan.

In the domestic market, IndiGo plans to add four more stations to its network, increasing it from 91 to 95 destinations. IndiGo is all set to become the first airline to start operations at the Navi Mumbai International Airport and Noida International Airport in Jewar (serving both the Uttar Pradesh and Delhi catchment area). Both these airports will witness significant investments of capacity from IndiGo as it continues to strengthen the value proposition for the two large catchments that they represent. In addition, IndiGo will launch flights to/from Adampur Airport in Jalandhar on July 1, 2025, and Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad in due course.

“Today’s set of ambitious announcements for FY26 are yet another important step for IndiGo. Adding 14 new destinations (10 international and 4 domestic), growing partnerships with airlines and airports will not only be greatly beneficial to our customers but also at the very heart of our purpose of giving wings to the nation,” said Pieter Elbers, Chief Executive Officer, IndiGo.

“India is amongst the fastest growing aviation markets in the world, and as the largest Indian airline, IndiGo is committed to consistently increase its contribution to this growth. The financial year 2025 has been a pivotal year in our journey as we took significant steps in our evolution into a truly global airline. This includes the introduction of IndiGoStretch, our tailor-made business offering, and BlueChip, our loyalty program, besides sizeable network expansion in the domestic as well as international market,” Elbers added.
