Mumbai: Akasa Air, India’s fastest-growing airline, celebrates its second anniversary today, marking an extraordinary journey evidenced by significant milestones for any Indian airline in the history of aviation. The airline operated its first commercial flight on 07 August 2022 from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, redefining the representation of an Indian airline led by its empathetic service culture, reliable operations and affordable fares.
Akasa Air has consistently been India’s most on-time airline. This, together with its operational efficiencies and extremely positive customer feedback has made it the preferred carrier of over 11 million passengers in India since its inception. In line with its endeavour to cater to the growing demand for air travel by connecting people, cultures, and regions, Akasa Air has registered triple-digit growth and continues to be the fastest-growing airline in global aviation history
Celebrating the milestone, Vinay Dube, Founder and CEO, Akasa Air, said, “Two years ago, we embarked on a journey with a vision to redefine air travel, and today, I can proudly say that we have successfully delivered on our purpose while upholding our commitment to reliability, service excellence and affordability. We offer an unparalleled flying experience with the most comfortable seat in the Indian skies, a fresh in-cabin experience and our carefully curated culinary offerings, delivered by our empathetic crew. In this past year, we have consistently been India’s leader in on-time performance while registering greater operational reliability, and the lowest customer complaints, and cancellations in the industry.
These milestones would not have been possible without the dedication of over 4000 Akasians whose effort and passion have been the driving force behind our collective achievements.
Our success is also a direct result of the unwavering support and confidence of our partners who have backed us in our plans. We are extremely thankful to the Ministry of Civil Aviation and the DGCA for their steadfast drive to propel the growth of the industry. We are grateful to our shareholders for believing in our dream and for their constant support and guidance and we are excited about the future and the opportunities that lie ahead and will continue to build an airline that will make India proud.”
Vinay added, “Akasa Air has always been more than a carrier flying from one place to another. It is the very embodiment of the Indian spirit, testifying to the potential that India holds as an aviation market”.
