This positions the Air India Group as a key player in all segments of the Indian market: domestic, international, full-service and low-cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this change, the Group seeks to improve its operational capabilities, expand its customer base and progressively raise service standards, product excellence and traveler experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/10\/air-india-and-singapore-airlines-add-51-new-destinations-to-their-codeshare-agreement.html\">Air India and Singapore Airlines add 51 new destinations to their codeshare agreement<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Post-merger, the Air India Group operates a combined fleet of 300 aircraft covering 55 domestic and 48 international destinations, with 312 routes and 8,300 flights per week. The airline will offer extended worldwide connectivity to over 800 destinations through more than 75 codeshare and interline partners. The collective staff strength stands at over 30,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt has been a little over two and a half years since the homecoming of Air India to the Tata Group. This week\u2019s merger between Air India and Vistara is an important milestone in our commitment to transform Air India into a world-class global airline. Singapore Airlines continues to be our strategic partner in our aviation journey and we welcome them to Air India\u201d, Natarajan Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons, said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis merger marks a pivotal moment for Indian aviation. Working with our valued, long-standing partner Tata Sons, the SIA Group will support the ongoing transformation of the enlarged Air India Group, offering our stewardship and expertise where
