Air India Express expands its global footprint by introducing 22 new international routes in 2024, with the notable exception of the Mangaluru-Singapore flight, which has been discontinued.

Air India Express, a low-cost carrier owned by the Tata Group, added 22 international city pair routes in 2024. The airline launched and resumed services on 103 weekly flights, with Mumbai and Delhi being the primary beneficiaries, with 28 and 21 weekly flights respectively. The airline’s expansion was divided into two phases, with 14 routes introduced in the first half of 2024 and 8 additional routes in the second half. Bangkok was added as a new destination, but operations to Dhaka were later withdrawn. The airline also introduced Airbus A320 aircraft for international operations, marking a shift in its operational approach. The airline plans to strengthen its presence in Southeast Asia with the launch of Phuket services in January 2025. The expansion reflects the airline’s efforts to enhance its international footprint and capture emerging market opportunities. The article includes a table of all 22 routes added by Air India Express in 2024. Unfortunately, the airline has decided not to launch a planned flight from Mangaluru to Singapore, which was scheduled to operate twice weekly.
