Since launching operations in 2022, the airline has captured approximately 4% of India\u2019s domestic market, serving 18 destinations with a fleet of 22 737 MAX 8 jets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/01\/akasa-air-adds-two-new-boeing-737-max-aircraft.html\">Akasa Air adds two new Boeing 737 MAX aircraft<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to announce this historic order for 150 new Boeing airplanes, increasing our total orders from Boeing to 226 jets. In addition to supporting our rapid domestic expansion, the efficiency and economics of these new airplanes position Akasa to launch international routes in the coming months,\u201d said Vinay Dube, Akasa Air founder and CEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both 737 MAX variants will provide Akasa Air with added capacity and range on new and existing routes, while reducing fuel use and carbon emissions by 20% compared to older-generation airplanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis milestone demonstrates the strength of our partnership with Akasa Air and is a testament to the capabilities of the 737 MAX family to further the airline\u2019s operational priorities,\u201d said Stephanie Pope, Boeing Chief Operating Officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related
