On Wednesday, December 24, IndiGo announced that it has fully stabilized its operations and is ready to accommodate the anticipated increase in passenger demand during the current holiday season.
An IndiGo spokesperson mentioned that since December 9, 2025, the airline has been consistently increasing its capacity in accordance with government regulations and is currently operating between 2,100 and 2,200 flights each day. IndiGo is transporting over one million passengers every three days across its network, connecting all 138 operational destinations while upholding its standards for on-time performance.
The airline stated it has effectively navigated recent operational hurdles encountered by the aviation industry, particularly due to heavy fog across northern India that caused widespread disruptions. Despite being affected, IndiGo managed operations efficiently to ensure overall stability.
With weather forecasts predicting a tougher winter ahead, the airline emphasized its commitment to ensuring reliability and minimizing disruptions across its network to lessen passenger inconvenience.
